#### Are plane and spherical mirrors stigmatic?
##### Perfect stigmatism of the plane mirror
* A plane mirror is **perfectly stigmatic**.
* Object and image are symmetrical on both side of the surface of the plane mirror.
* A real object gives a virtual image.<br> A virtual object gives a real image.
##### Non stigmatism of the spherical mirror
* In each point of the spherical mirror, the law of reflection applies.
* A spherical mirror is not stigmatic: The rays (or their extensions)
* coming from an object point generally do not converge towards an image
* point (see Fig. 2.)
