Zusammenfassung: | A scanning optical system, includes a mirror unit having a first mirror surface and a second mirror surface which incline to a rotation axis; and a light projecting system having a light source. A light flux emitted from the light source is reflected on the first mirror surface of the mirror unit, thereafter, reflected on the second mirror surface, and then, projected so as to scan in a main scanning direction onto an object in accordance with rotation of the mirror unit. In the case where a virtual plane is set in a range including the object, a light flux reflected on the second mirror surface has, upon entering the virtual plane, a cross sectional shape in which a length in a direction orthogonal to the main scanning direction is longer than a length in the main scanning direction. |
