An optical lens assembly for image photographing, in order from an object side to an image side comprising: a first lens element with positive refractive power having a convex object-side surface; a second lens element with positive refractive power; a third lens element with positive refractive power having a convex image-side surface; a plastic fourth lens element with negative refractive power having a concave image-side surface, both object-side and image-side surfaces being aspheric, and having at least one inflection point. Additionally, the optical lens assembly for photographing image has an image sensor on the image plane for imaging a photographed object and satisfies specific conditions. Thereby, this invention has a high resolving power and can shorten the total length of the lens assembly for using in camera and mobile phone camera with well photographing abilities.
