See full text

An optical imaging lens assembly that may have six lens components. The first, third, fourth, and fifth lens components may have positive refractive power. The second and sixth lens components may have negative refractive power. The lens assembly may satisfy the relation |f/f5|+|f/f6|<1.4, wherein f is a focal length of the optical imaging lens assembly, f5 is a focal length of the fifth lens component, f6 is a focal length of the sixth lens component. The lens assembly may also satisfy the further relation 0.8<|f/f5|+|f/f6|. The first lens component may include a wafer lens having a lens element molded on one or both surfaces of a planar substrate or two wafer lenses having a lens element molded on one surface of each of two planar substrates. The wafer lens may include an electrically controlled electrochromic surface having variable light transmittance.
