Abstract

Abstract A lens system for micro film which provides high resolution over a wide range with a ultraviolet ray, and has transmittance sufficient for said ray and a long working distance on the image side. Said lens system comprises a first positive lens component, a second meniscus lens component, a third negative lens component, a fourth cemented doublet component, a fifth positive cemented doublet component, a sixth positive lens component and a seventh cemented doublet component consisting of a negative lens element and a positive lens element.
