This invention seeks to provide a resin composition that can simultaneously satisfy resistances such as heat resistance and environmental resistance and moldability at high levels and that has excellent optical properties such as high refractivity and low birefringence and molded article thereof.
The present invention is a resin composition containing a polyester resin formed from a dicarboxylic acid component and a diol component (a) and a polycarbonate resin formed from a carbonate-forming component and a diol component (b), the diol component (a) containing a specific fluorene-containing compound and the diol component (b) containing a specific fluorene-containing compound.
