whose convex surface faces an object and a second lens having positive or negative
refracting power whose convex surface faces the object, wherein each of the first
lens and the second lens has at least one aspheric surface and satisfies the following

length of the first lens, f2 is a focal length of the second lens and f
is a focal length of the entire system of the image pickup lens.
