[QUOTE="aroy, post: 325376, member: 16090"] It does not work on the D3300 at least. In live view the mirror is up, but when you shoot, the mirror comes down, then goes up and then the shutter fires. I have checked it. For really long exposures, the "black cloth" method is better, as it lets both the mirror and the shutter vibrations settle. Another thing to take care of is the Tripod vibration. For long exposures you need a strong tripod on a solid base, else it will vibrate with wind and if near roads with traffic. Some users of MF 80MP cameras have commented of foot steps affecting their shots, so they trigger the camera by remote after moving quite a distance from the camera, and sit tight till the shot is over.
