But since I'm not real familiar with manufacturers in this field, I thought I'd ask for feedback on the quality of mitutoyo parts if anyone has experience with them.

THE top names in measuring tools of almost ANY kind are as follows.
Mitutoyo
Starret
Brown&Sharp
all others are typically compared to those.
Mitutoyo is Quality, period. Even old Mitutoyo is Quality so long as it was not heavily abused.
