The gentleman with the experience was quite right, portrait photographers normally take their shots in a vertical position, therefore cannot use this flash to bounce light off a ceiling for a softening effect. I too find this unfortunate.

I have the Nikon 1 V1. I purchased it because I wanted a small camera that was easy to carry around but something between a DSLR and Point and Shoot. My large camera is a Nikon D90 with the 18-200 mm lens. The D90 is my preferred camera for shooting pictures but is on the large and heavy side.
