Recent instrumental developments in imaging polarimetry allow array detectors to reach a polarimetric sensitivity of 1 β’ 10 -4 of the intensity. New instrumental effects appear at these levels of sensitivity and generate spurious polarization signals with amplitudes of up to 5 β’ 10 -4. Here I discus
