Most of these are longer than 1/2sec and up to 2sec and so there is time for a fine vibration to play out when the shutter fires.
I look forward to trying it.

Trevor,

The mirror slap is causing vibration directly in the shutter plane and is independent of focal length. Mirror slap won't move a large telephoto lens around on a solid tripod. The most important thing in long focal length and macro shooting is a solid tripod. Movement of the subject can also cause blur in these shooting situations.
