Abstract
An image pickup apparatus including an optical system and an image pickup element. The optical system includes a first refractive surface disposed closest to an object, a first reflection surface, and a second reflection surface. A light receiving surface of the image pickup element is disposed at only one side with respect to the optical axis and at a position closer to the optical axis than an intersection between a straight line connecting an intersection on the first refractive surface and an intersection on an imaginary extension surface of the second reflection surface and an imaginary extension surface of the light receiving surface. Expression 1.5≤L/L≤6.5 is satisfied where Lis an interval between the first reflection surface and the second reflection surface, and Lis an interval between the first reflection surface and the light receiving surface.
