Pleograph () was an early type of movie camera constructed in 1894, before those made by the Lumière brothers, by Polish inventor Kazimierz Prószyà Âski.
Similarly to the Lumière brothers cinematograph, Prószyà Âski's pleograph has also been used as a projector. The apparatus used a rectangle of celluloid with perforation between several parallel rows of images. Using improved pleograph Prószyà Âski shot first short films showing scenes from the life of Warsaw like people skating on in the park ("à Âlizgawka w Ogrodzie Saskim" (Rink in Saxon Garden) - 1902).
Prószyà Âski later constructed the first hand held camera called an Aeroscope, the first compressed air camera.
The first Polish film studio established in Warsaw in 1901 was named after this camera in its Polish spelling.
