Abstract

An imaging lens consists of, in order from the object side, a front group having a negative refractive power, a stop, and a rear group having a positive refractive power. The front group consist of a front-group negative lens group that consists of three negative lenses and has a negative refractive power, and a front-group positive lens group that includes one positive lens and one negative lens and has a positive refractive power, where the negative lens is disposed at the most image-side position. The rear group includes two positive lenses and two negative lenses. The imaging lens satisfies condition expression (1): 0.95<−fAn/f<2, where fAn is a focal length of the front-group negative lens group, and f is a focal length of the entire system.
