My guess is that the vibration absorptive capacity of hands holding the camera would far exceed the vibration from the aperture stop-down mechanism.

I just mention this because I used to think locking up the mirror and using a cable release was the ne plus ultra. No cigar. Better to cradle the camera and lens and use your finger IMHO, especially with anything longer than an 85 or 90mm lens (or maybe even a 50).

I wonder whether pushing the preview button would settle things down. How much does the automatic aperture contribute vs. the mechanism in the camera that activates it?
