An optical element for recording/reproducing a hologram condenses a recording beam into a hologram recording medium, while also allowing the passage of a reproduction beam from the hologram recording medium in the reverse direction with respect to the recording beam. The optical element is configured to converge, upon incidence of a parallel beam flux as the recording beam, an on-axis beam and off-axis beams contained in the parallel beam flux onto different image points. A beam condensing spot of the on-axis beam and the off-axis beams is formed, with a predetermined diameter at a predetermined position on an optical axis on a way to the image points. At least one of the on-axis beam and the off-axis beams has a diameter, at the predetermined position on the optical axis, smaller than the predetermined diameter of the beam condensing spot.
