Specifications
About the Axis AXIS P3225-LVE Mk II
The Axis AXIS P3225-LVE Mk II is a tinted-bubble dome that obscures the lens direction, deterring tampering and vandalism. 1080p Full HD remains the most widely deployed CCTV resolution in 2026 — it balances bandwidth, storage, and detail well, supporting facial identification up to roughly 12 meters in good light. Medium IR range (20–40 m) is appropriate for typical residential driveways, small commercial perimeters, and back-of-house loading bays where reach beyond ~30 m is rarely needed at night. A wide 80–120° angle covers a large room or open area from a single mounting position, making it ideal for retail floors, conference rooms, and small parking lots. Super Low Light technology pulls usable color out of scenes lit by little more than a streetlight or moonlight, eliminating the need to drop into B/W mode in most night conditions.
Best use cases for this camera
Entrance, lobby & vestibule
The 92° field of view captures the entire entrance and surrounding waiting area from a single ceiling mount. Useful for capturing visitors as they enter and leave.
Retail & office interior
Dome form factor and 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution make this a clean retail/office choice — the housing blends into ceilings and the sensor delivers enough detail for POS-area monitoring and incident review.

- •92° wide field of view reduces the number of cameras needed per area
- •Vandal-resistant dome housing harder to tamper with than bullet form factor
- •30m effective range supports outdoor perimeter and parking-lot deployments
Considerations
- •No notable limitations for the intended class of installations

Installation tips for the AXIS P3225-LVE Mk II
Ceiling-mount at 2.5–3.5 m for indoor use; for vandal-prone outdoor locations use a wall mount with the lens facing outward and downward.
Position so the most important subject (entrance, cash register, gate) is in the center third of the frame — peripheral pixel density drops with wide angles.
