No it doesn't, and the 645N demonstrated that there is no difference 
between using the MLU or not using it with a well damped mirror like the 
one of the 645.
MLU on the 645N was only added for marketing reasons, since so many asked 
for it.


I disagree. There are several instances when you cannot put a camera on a 
ideal surface where the small difference with or without mirror lock 
actually makes a difference. However, for ordinary shooting condition the 
lack of mirror lock is a non-issue.
The mirror pre-fire function is also nice elimination the need for a remote 
release.
