What is it?
The mirror lock-up control on your DSLR flips and holds the mirror just prior to and during the exposure. For Most DSLR cameras this control can be located in the shooting LCD menu.
Nikon, however, has recently placed it on the camera's top drive mode dial, huh? If you have a newer Nikon DSLR it's on the control knob on the top of your camera. Check your user's manuel for your specific model.
So, who cares? You want to use this feature when your shooting at slow shutter speeds (1/8-1/20 sec) where mirror slap (not to be confused with a dope slap) can cause image-blurring vibration in standard shooting, even if you are using a tripod.
