AXIS 15-100 mm f/1.9 P-Iris CS-Mount Varifocal CCTV Lens

For surveillance environments that demand both wide-area context and long-range detail, the AXIS 03465-001 varifocal lens eliminates the need to swap optics when coverage requirements evolve. Its 15–100 mm focal range spans a 6.7x optical zoom, while the P-Iris mechanism keeps exposure precise across changing light—unlike fixed-iris lenses that often struggle with flicker or overexposure. Built on a CS-mount and corrected for infrared, this lens pairs cleanly with day/night cameras up to 1/2.5" sensors, delivering sharp, colour-accurate video from 0.3 m to the far end of a parking lot.

Highlights

• Varifocal 15–100 mm range with 6.7x optical zoom for flexible scene framing.
• P-Iris for automatic, precise aperture control—ideal for outdoor and variable lighting.
• CS-mount compatibility with sensors up to 1/2.5", including 1/2.7", 1/3", and 1/4".
• IR-corrected optics maintain focus under infrared illumination for true day/night operation.
• Manual focus and zoom locks allow secure, tamper-resistant setup in fixed installations.
• Robust metal and glass construction rated for -20 °C to 50 °C operation.

In daily use

Installers will appreciate the straightforward mechanical adjustments: set the focal length to capture a wide entrance, then fine-tune focus at the desired working distance. The P-Iris works with compatible AXIS cameras to optimise depth of field and light intake automatically, reducing the need for on-site iris tweaking. At 15 mm, the horizontal field of view reaches 20.8° on a 1/2.5" sensor—enough to monitor a lobby or loading bay—while at 100 mm it narrows to 3.1°, pulling distant license plates or faces into clear view. The minimum object distance of 0.3 m also allows close-up identification when needed.
