Abstract
An erecting equal-magnification lens array unit includes a first lens array and a second lens array. The first lens array includes a plurality of first lenses. The second lens array includes a plurality of second lenses. The optical axes of the second lenses overlap with the optical axes of the first lenses. Each first lens and second lens with overlapping optical axes form a unit optical system. Each unit optical system is an erecting equal-magnification optical system. Each unit optical system is substantially telecentric on at least the object side. The imaging position, by each first lens, of an object is positioned between the first lens array and the second lens array.
