F-theta lenses, included in scanning lens systems, are arranged on a main scanning plane facing an optical deflector and substantially linearly symmetrically on the main scanning plane with reference to a rotational center of the optical deflector. Each f-theta lens has a no-power portion in the main scanning direction. Synchronization-detecting light passes through the no-power portion of the f-theta lens, thus enabling reduction in color shift due to temperature variation in an image forming apparatus without increasing the cost and complexity in controlling color shift.
