Here's my opinion: If you have to ask, then you probably don't need to worry about it. Cameras that have mirror lock up will advertise this in their marketing. My N90s has the loudest shutter, so this tells me right there that this might be a contributor to camera shake with extremely long exposures. Mirror lock up is usually reserved for the higher end cameras, though there are exceptions, of course. On the digital front, my D100 does have mirror lock up, called Anti-Mirror-shock mode, but I've never used it.
