Retrofocus type wide angle lens

A retrofocus type wide angle lens has, in succession from the object side, a first component which is a positive meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the object side, a second component which is a negative meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the object side, a third component which is a negative meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the object side, a fourth component having a cemented surface of negative refractive power convex toward the object surface and having a negative refractive power as a whole, a fifth component which is a biconvex positive lens having a surface of sharper curvature on the object side, a sixth component which is a positive meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the image side, a stop, a seventh component which is a biconcave cemented negative lens comprising a positive meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the image side and a biconcave negative lens cemented thereto, an eighth component which is a positive meniscus lens having its convex surface facing the image side, and a ninth component which is a biconvex positive lens. The retrofocus type wide angle lens satisfies specified conditions.
