Abstract
In an image pickup apparatus including an optical system and an image pickup element, the optical system includes, in order from an object side to an image side, lens(es), an aperture stop, and lens(es). The lens arranged at the most image side in the optical system is a negative lens, and an infrared cut film is formed on at least one lens surface in the optical system. An optical axial distance from the exit pupil of the optical system to the image plane when focusing on an infinite object, an optical axial distance from the lens surface provided with the infrared cut film to the image plane when focusing on the infinite distance object, the curvature radius of the lens surface provided with the infrared cut film, and a radius of a circle circumscribed about an effective imaging area of the image pickup element are appropriately set.
