Abstract
Abstract An improved tessor type lens system for facsimile having a large aperture ratio and a high contrast are provided. The lens system comprises for components between object and image as follows; a first positive meniscus lens element, a second biconcave lens element, a third meniscus shaped doublet. The entire lens system is capable of providing an aperture ratio greater than 90% and a half angle of image of approximately 18° with an f number of 4.5.
