A photographic lens has a first and second positive lens. The first lens is a meniscus lens having a convex object side surface. The second lens is a double-convex lens. The photographic lens satisfies the following conditions:

5.6f8; F1F2; 0.39F/F10.5; 0.15R1/F0.19; 1.4(F/R3)f3.0; and R3|R4|

wherein F is an overall focal length, F1 is a focal length of the first lens, F2 is a focal length of the second lens, f is a ratio of the overall focal length F to an effective aperture size defined by the first stop, R1 is a radius of curvature of the object side surface of the first lens, R3 and R4 are radii of curvature of the object side spherical surface and of an average spherical surface of the image side aspherical surface of the second lens.
