A 3.5–6.6 mm varifocal lens lets you frame the scene perfectly from the network, Forensic WDR handles mixed bright-and-dark areas, and AXIS Object Analytics classifies people and vehicles on the edge for faster forensic search. NDAA 889 and TAA compliant, backed by a 5-Year Australian warranty. Resolution 8 MP / 4K Lens 3.5–6.6 mm Varifocal Analytics Deep Learning DLPU Protection IP42 / IK08 4K Clarity with Intelligence on the Edge Built around a 1/2.8″ CMOS sensor and Axis ARTPEC-class CV25 SoC, the M4218-V captures crisp 3840×2160 video and runs deep-learning analytics directly on the camera. Forensic WDR (up to 110 dB) keeps detail in scenes with both bright windows and dark corners, while the varifocal lens with remote zoom and focus makes installation and re-framing quick and precise. Varifocal with Remote Zoom & Focus The 3.5–6.6 mm lens (F1.7–2.6) gives a 93°–47° horizontal field of view, adjusted remotely so you can fine-tune coverage without touching the camera. Deep Learning Analytics AXIS Object Analytics detects and classifies humans and vehicles on the edge, with line crossing, object-in-area and time-in-area for loitering detection — producing rich metadata for fast forensic search. Forensic WDR for Tricky Light Wide dynamic range up to 110 dB preserves usable detail in high-contrast indoor scenes such as lobbies, entrances and retail floors. 4K Output & HDMI Stream superior 4K detail with efficient Zipstream H.264/H.265 compression, plus an HDMI type-D output for public-view monitors.

Is the lens varifocal?Yes. It has a 3.5–6.6 mm varifocal lens with remote zoom and remote focus, so coverage can be adjusted from the network. Does it have built-in IR for darkness?No. The M4218-V has no integrated IR illuminator — it is designed for lit indoor areas. For low-light it relies on its F1.7 aperture, Forensic WDR and 0.24 lux colour sensitivity. The M4218-LV is the IR variant. What analytics are included?A deep learning processing unit runs AXIS Object Analytics (human/vehicle detection and classification), AXIS Video Motion Detection, AXIS Face Detector and AXIS Live Privacy Shield on the edge. Is it indoor or outdoor rated?Indoor. It is rated IP42 and IK08 with an operating range of 0 °C to 40 °C. How is it powered?Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af/802.3at Type 1 Class 2), typically 3 W and a maximum of 4.8 W — a single network cable carries power and data. Does it support audio?Yes, via Axis portcast technology — two-way audio and I/O are added through an AXIS T61 Series accessory over the same network cable. Is it NDAA compliant?Yes. As an Axis Communications camera it is NDAA Section 889 and TAA compliant, suitable for government and enterprise projects. What warranty applies in Australia?It comes with a 5-Year Australian warranty, plus fast AU-wide shipping and local tech support from CCTV Guru. 5-Year AU Warranty Fast AU-Wide Shipping AU Tech Support
