===Other sizes=== {{Main|Floppy disk variants}} Other smaller floppy sizes were proposed, especially for portable or pocket-sized devices that needed a smaller storage device. * [[Tabor Drivette|3¼-inch floppies]] otherwise similar to 5¼-inch floppies were proposed by [[Tabor Corporation|Tabor]] and [[Dysan]]. * Three-inch disks similar in construction to 3½-inch were manufactured and used for a time, particularly by [[Amstrad#Computer product lines|Amstrad]] computers and word processors. * A two-inch nominal size known as the [[Video Floppy]] was introduced by Sony for use with its Mavica still video camera.<ref>{{cite web|title=Sony / Canon 2 Inch Video Floppy|url=http://www.obsoletemedia.org/2-inch-floppy-disk-video-floppy/|website=Museum of Obsolete Media|access-date=4 January 2018|date=2013-05-02|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180113005125/http://www.obsoletemedia.org/2-inch-floppy-disk-video-floppy/|archive-date=13 January 2018|url-status=live}}</ref> * An incompatible two-inch floppy produced by Fujifilm called the LT-1 was used in the [[Zenith Minisport]] portable computer.<ref>{{cite web|title=2 inch lt1 floppy disk|url=http://www.obsoletemedia.org/lt-1/|website=Museum of Obsolete Media|access-date=4 January 2018|date=2017-07-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180104221008/http://www.obsoletemedia.org/lt-1/|archive-date=4 January 2018|url-status=live}}</ref> None of these sizes achieved much market success.<ref>Disk/Trend Report-Flexible Disk Drives, Disk/Trend Inc., November 1991, pp. SUM-27</ref>
