Abstract
An image forming lens is formed by sequentially arranging, from an object side to an image side, a first lens group having positive refractive power, an aperture stop, a second lens group having positive refractive power, and a third lens group having positive or negative refractive power. When focusing is performed from a long distance to a short distance, the third lens group is fixed relative to an image surface, and the first lens group, the aperture stop, and the second lens group are moved integrally to the object side. In the image forming lens, the third lens group is formed by sequentially arranging, from the object side to the image side, two lenses in order of a negative lens and a positive lens, and a conditional expression is satisfied:0.20<<0.60,where
