Axis P1265 MkII 1080P Modular Pinhole IP Camera
- CCTV Lens Guide
- Hard Drive Size Guide
Unless selecting a vari-focal camera (with an adjustable lens) It is important to select the correct camera lens option for where the camera is to be positioned. A smaller lens will give you a wider angle but will be "zoomed out more", while a bigger lens will narrow the angle down and "zoom in more". See below to give you some idea on angles of Megapixel HD Cameras:
Lens in mm | Approx Viewing Angle (degrees) | Ideal Distance (metres) | Typical usage/notes |
---|---|---|---|
2.8 | 106 | <6 | For seeing as much of the immediate area as possible such as above a doorway/low down/garage soffits (edges can appear slightly warped/distorted) - clearly "zoomed out" |
3.6/4 | 83-90 | <12 | A great general purpose option giving great coverage still in the corner of a room or higher up on second floor soffits with less distortion - more of a natural "zoom" |
6 | 56 | 6-20 | Narrows down the angle and zooms in to look past the immediate area a little to gain more detail - down a driveway for example from higher up |
12 | 24 | 20+ | Zooms in significantly more to look at a gate, entrance or adjascent building |
16 | 19 | 24+ | As above but more so |
The amount of hard drive space you require is dictated by how many cameras, as well as their resolution, frame rate settings, and whether you have H.265 encoding enabled or not to save space (We advise turning it on to double the capacity shown below with ease).
Finally, you can often make your storage space last a lot longer by enabling motion-detected recording rather than continuous, especially if there are long periods of no activity (to perhaps double or more these figures again).
Resolution (Megapixels) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per camera (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (continuous - full 25 frames per second) |
Days of storage provided by 1TB per 4 cameras (50% motion- 15 frames per second) |
---|---|---|---|
1 | 44 | 11 | 36 |
2 | 22 | 5 | 18 |
3 | 17 | 4 | 14 |
4 | 11 | 3 | 9 |
5 | 9 | 2 | 8 |
6 | 8 | 2 | 6 |
8 (4K) | 5 | 1 | 4 |
12 | 4 | 0.5 | 3 |
As a rule of thumb, we recommend 2 Terabytes for a 4 x 4/5MP HD camera setup, as this should give you approx 2 weeks using H.265 @ 20fps and that is on continuous, not motion-detected recording.
(You may only require the full 25 frames per second on certain cameras if things are fast-moving - ie above a till)

Ideal for mounting in tight spaces, AXIS P1245 Mk II features a small, thumb-sized sensor unit that’s easy to install and blends into any indoor environment. Featuring a deep learning processing unit, it enables the use of advanced analytics.
Compact and discreet
With a small, thumb-sized sensor unit, AXIS P1245 Mk II can be recessed mounted to blend into almost any indoor environment. The sensor unit connects via cable to the main unit, so the two parts can be placed separately from each other for even more discreet installation.
Highly flexible
Based on the divided modular camera concept, AXIS P1245 Mk II can be installed in tight spaces, such as behind metal or glass. It´s ideal for installation in areas where larger surveillance cameras won’t fit. Plus, it can be mounted on a bracket, swivel mount, or similar. And it’s easy to integrate with other devices. Including a standard sensor unit, this indoor camera suits a wide range of applications such as video surveillance at ATMs, ticketing machines, self-checkouts, automated parcel lockers, and medical machines. The sensor unit can be mounted up to 15 m from the main unit. Plus, a detachable cable ensures flexible installation, maintenance, and upgrade
Great image quality and support for advanced analytics
AXIS P1245 Mk II offers 1080p resolution with a wide, 111° field of view. Axis Zipstream significantly reduces bandwidth and storage requirements. And WDR ensures clarity even when there’s both dark and light areas in a scene. Plus, a deep learning processing unit enables the use of advanced analytics. For instance, AXIS Object Analytics can detect and classify different types of objects. And, with support for ACAP version 4, you can add value to your system with tailor-made applications based on deep learning on the edge. Furthermore, AXIS Live Privacy Shield makes it easy to monitor activities while safeguarding privacy
