Abstract

An image transmission optical system wherein a lens unit serving for relaying an image for a unit relaying distance consists of two bar-shaped cemented lens components, and each of said lens components consists of a bar-shaped lens element and two lens elements which are cemented to both the end surfaces of said bar-shaped lens element respectively of said bar-shaped lens element and have a refractive index higher than that of said bar-shaped lens element. This image transmission optical system comprises a small number of air-contact surfaces and has favorably corrected aberrations.
