Abstract
Abstract An ultra-high resolution reducing lens system comprising a lens group I having negative refractive power and a lens group II having positive refractive power which are arranged by providing a large airspace between them. The ultra-high resolution lens system is compactly designed but has a long working distance. Moreover, the quantity of light does not decrease in the marginal portion of the field, resolution is high, aperture ratio is F1.0 and magnification is ×1/100.
