An image forming apparatus, capable of efficiently controlling light radiation to read an image, includes at least one lighting tube and at least one reflector. Each one of the lighting tubes includes an aperture. Each one of the reflectors is arranged at a position in a vicinity to and corresponding to the lighting tube on a one-to-one basis. Each one of the reflectors is configured to gather light emitted through the aperture by the corresponding lighting tube to focus the light on a point in a reading area in a surface of an original document to be read. Each one of the reflectors includes an elliptical shape.
