what's so hard on that?
Crank up the IoR and use specular withOUT transparency. absorption 0 0 0
The higher the IoR the better. ;)

If you want a more real mirror, well, try to model one :) (I think, noone did that, 'till now...

of course! also model a real camera, slightly dusty sss-air (wait, ... why dont model the dust-particles?) and light the scene with funky indirect caustics. i wonder if that's the reason why we dont see much renders from you :wink:

A real mirror isn't actually hard to model...
I'm not sure, what's the reflective layer, though. I guess, that varies.
The other layer is glass.

A mirror in general *only* has a reflective layer, though...
(metal ball or something like that)

that particle idea actually isn't that bad and could be done, if particles would be supported by indigo.

Real camera models exist, too.
