The eight lenses respectively have object side surfaces facing the object side direction and image side surfaces facing the image side direction.

The second lens element has a convex object-side surface at a paraxial region; therefore, the lens can be matched with the first lens to correct the aberration. The image-side surface of the second lens element can be concave at a paraxial region; this helps correct aberrations such as astigmatism.

The fifth lens element with positive refractive power; this contributes to the reduction in the volume of the imaging optical system.

The seventh lens element has a convex object-side surface at a paraxial region; therefore, the refractive power of the seventh lens element can be adjusted, and off-axis aberration can be corrected.

The image-side surface of the eighth lens element can have at least one critical point at an off-axis position; therefore, the off-axis aberration can be corrected, and the incident angle of the light on the imaging surface can be adjusted, so that the illumination of the imaging surface and the response efficiency of the electronic photosensitive element are improved. Wherein, a vertical distance between a critical point of the image-side surface of the eighth lens element and the optical axis is Yc82, a maximum effective radius of the image-side surface of the eighth lens element is Y82, and at least one critical point of the image-side surface of the eighth lens element at the off-axis position can satisfy the following condition: 0.20 yarn of Yc82/Y82<0.60; therefore, the surface shape of the eighth lens can be adjusted to further improve the imaging quality.

If the lens is made of glass, the degree of freedom of the arrangement of the refractive power of the optical system for image pickup can be increased, and the influence of the external environmental temperature change on the image formation can be reduced. If the lens material is plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced. In addition, a spherical surface or an Aspherical Surface (ASP) can be arranged on the mirror surface, wherein the spherical lens can reduce the manufacturing difficulty, and if the aspherical surface is arranged on the mirror surface, more control variables can be obtained so as to reduce the aberration and the number of lenses and effectively reduce the total length of the optical system for shooting. Furthermore, the aspheric surface can be made by plastic injection molding or molding glass lens.

In the imaging optical system disclosed in the present invention, when the lens surface is an aspherical surface, it means that all or a part of the optically effective area of the lens surface is an aspherical surface.

In the optical system for camera shooting disclosed by the invention, additives can be selectively added into any (more than one) lens material to change the transmittance of the lens for light rays with a specific wave band, so that stray light and color cast are reduced. For example: the additive can have the function of filtering light rays with wave bands of 600 nanometers to 800 nanometers in the system, so that redundant red light or infrared light can be reduced; or the light with wave band of 350 nm to 450 nm can be filtered out to reduce the redundant blue light or ultraviolet light, therefore, the additive can prevent the light with specific wave band from causing interference to the imaging. In addition, the additives can be uniformly mixed in the plastic and made into the lens by the injection molding technology.

In the optical system for photographing disclosed by the invention, if the lens surface is a convex surface and the position of the convex surface is not defined, the convex surface can be positioned at the position close to the optical axis of the lens surface; if the lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the concave surface can be located at the position of the lens surface near the optical axis.

In the imaging optical system disclosed in the present invention, the Inflection Point (Inflection Point) of the lens surface is a boundary Point at which the curvature of the lens surface changes in positive and negative directions. The Critical Point (Critical Point) of the lens surface refers to a tangent Point on a tangent line of a plane perpendicular to the optical axis and tangent to the lens surface, and the Critical Point is not located on the optical axis.

In the imaging optical system disclosed in the present invention, the imaging surface of the imaging optical system may be a flat surface or a curved surface having any curvature, particularly a curved surface having a concave surface facing the object side, depending on the electro-photosensitive element.

In the imaging optical system disclosed in the present invention, one or more imaging correction elements (flat field elements, etc.) can be selectively arranged between the lens closest to the imaging plane and the imaging plane to achieve the effect of correcting the image (image curvature, etc.). The optical properties of the image modifying element, such as curvature, thickness, refractive index, position, profile (convex or concave, spherical or aspherical, diffractive, fresnel, etc.) can be adjusted to suit the requirements of the image capturing device. In general, the preferred imaging correction element is configured such that a thin plano-concave element having a concave surface facing the object side is disposed near the imaging surface.

The optical system for image pickup disclosed in the present invention may be provided with at least one Stop, which may be located before the first lens, between the lenses or after the last lens, and the Stop may be of a type such as a flare Stop (Glare Stop) or a Field Stop (Field Stop), which may be used to reduce stray light and help to improve image quality.

In the imaging optical system disclosed in the present invention, the diaphragm may be disposed as a front diaphragm or a middle diaphragm. The front diaphragm means that the diaphragm is arranged between the object to be shot and the first lens, and the middle diaphragm means that the diaphragm is arranged between the first lens and the imaging surface. If the diaphragm is a front diaphragm, the Exit Pupil (Exit Pupil) and the imaging surface can generate a longer distance, so that the Exit Pupil has a Telecentric (telecentricity) effect, and the efficiency of receiving images by a CCD (charge coupled device) or a CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) of the electronic photosensitive element can be increased; the intermediate diaphragm contributes to enlarging the field angle of the imaging optical system.

The present invention can be suitably provided with a variable aperture element, which can be a mechanical member or a light control element, which can control the size and shape of the aperture by an electric or electrical signal. The mechanical component can comprise a blade group, a shielding plate and other movable parts; the light regulating element may include a filter element, an electrochromic material, a liquid crystal layer, and other shielding materials. The variable aperture element can enhance the image adjusting capability by controlling the light input amount or exposure time of the image. In addition, the variable aperture element can also be an aperture of the present invention, and the image quality, such as the depth of field or the exposure speed, can be adjusted by changing the aperture value.
