There's much more difference than that; vertical shutters are metal blades, whereas horizontal ones are cloth curtains. Or titanium foil curtains. Completely different designs.

I suspect Nikon believed the horizontally running shutters in their F series were more durable than the vertically running shutters in their compact bodies. Bud
