Extra Info
Low-Light Clarity with Lightfinder
Axis's Lightfinder technology lets this camera maintain full-color video in low-light conditions where many other cameras switch to black and white. This is essential in identifying people or objects in dim settings like storage areas, small offices, or restaurants during off-hours.
Discreet but Durable Design
The M3105-L’s compact mini dome form makes it ideal for locations where visual impact needs to be minimal—such as modern lobbies or upscale retail stores. Despite its small size, the IK08-rated housing resists vandalism and accidental damage, especially useful in areas with public access.
Smarter Storage with Zipstream
Axis Zipstream analyzes and compresses the video stream in real time, preserving important forensic detail while significantly lowering bandwidth and storage needs. This means you can store more days of footage or use lower-spec NVRs without compromising quality.
Ready for Installers and Integrators
Whether flush-mounted or recessed with an optional kit, the M3105-L is installer-friendly. Its pre-focused lens and factory-shipped adjustments cut install time, and the camera integrates easily with existing VMS platforms via ONVIF support.
