The Aeroscope camera was the work of the innovative, if idiosyncratic, designer Kasimir Proszynski. The camera used compressed air from either a foot pump or hand pump to charge a bank of cylinders. These drove the camera and operated a heavy flywheel which helped to stabilise the camera when handheld. According to Coe the first cameras were ready by the end of May 1911.
The camera was initially made by the Warwick Trading Co., with a new model being marketed by Eracam Ltd in 1921. This camera would appear to have been converted to a metal casing by Kingston & Lynes. Cherry Kearton, the wild life photographer, also produced the camera for a time and Kearton camera no. 141 was sold at Christie's Cameras, Optical Toys and Early Cinema 23 November 1995 lot 60.
