Abstract
An imaging optical system of the present invention includes first and second optical elements arranged in order from an object side and an aperture stop. Each of the first and second optical elements includes an aspherical surface which is rotationally asymmetric with respect to an optical axis. A curvature of the aspherical surface in a first cross section including the optical axis changes from the optical axis in a first direction perpendicular to the first cross section. A total length of the imaging optical system, a distance between the aspherical surface closest to the object side and the aperture stop, and Abbe numbers of the first and second optical elements are appropriately set.
