Do mirrors suffer from chromatic aberration?
A) Yes, every optical instrument suffers from it.

Mirrors reflect light without scattering or absorption, so they do not suffer from chromatic aberration. The angle of reflection is always equal to the angle of incidence, which means that the reflected light maintains the same color and does not separate into different wavelengths.
