Camera vibrations caused by the mirror’s reflex action when the picture
is taken is called “mirror shock”. Mirror lockup keeps the mirror up
before and while shooting to reduce blur caused by camera vibrations.
Useful when shooting closeups (macro photography), using a super
telephoto lens, and shooting at slow shutter speeds.
