Abstract
An adaptor lens is provided for attachment between a lens of a camera and a camera body, in order to provide the camera with adaptor lens attached, a smaller effective screen size than the camera without the adaptor lens attached. The adaptor lens is formed of, in order from the object side, a front lens group and a rear lens group. The front lens group is formed of, in sequential order from the object side, a negative lens element and at least one meniscus lens element with its concave surface on the object side. The rear lens group is formed of, in sequential order from the object side, a positive lens element with a convex surface on the object side, and a negative lens element. Various conditions are, preferably, satisfied in order to maintain favorable correction of axial chromatic aberration and lateral color.
