I will give this -- when I first got my RB67, I was surprised how smooth the mirror/shutter action was, but I just chalked it up to the non-instant mirror return. There'd be roughly twice the impulse (felt in the hands, not visible by the shutter) if the mirror returned as soon as the shutter was reclosed -- but there'd be no point in doing so, since the shutter will stay closed until cocked again.
I have a 35mm SLR (and older Praktica) with a mirror that returns only on advance, and my first SLR (Exa II) did the same. There's less felt movement, but it doesn't make any real difference in motion blur -- the return is after the shutter caps, after all. Apparently the RB was built with additional mechanics to help in this. Probably explains why I can hand hold it at reasonable speeds, even with the 250mm mounted.
