Mirror slap and star image distortion?

Hi All, I haven't been bothered yet using Live View or other mirro lockup to avoid the mirror vibration in my deep sky pics. I'm just wondering for short FL imaging <500mm whether it's liable to show distortion in star images... I see a slight inverted L shape in some stars in the RAWS that I thought might be due to this? What do you guys think

Alternatively is this more likely due to guiding corrections?
