Continuity mistake: When Boone is tied up with his right arm in front and his left arm at his back, just after Locke leaves, Boone tries to lean over to reach the knife. However, in the close-up of his back, it's his right arm that is tied behind him. The same flipped shot is used later, three more times, when he "hears" Shannon's scream. (00:15:30 - 00:22:40)

Whatever the Case May Be - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When Shannon helps Sayid with the French translations, and particularly later when they sit on the beach, she wears a pink shawl which repeatedly changes position - on and off her shoulder and arms, the entire time. (00:20:35)

Whatever the Case May Be - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: After Kate and Sawyer find the corpses underwater, the marshal's Halliburton case that Sawyer retrieves has two protruding wide silver clasps to the handle's sides, and a thin, narrow handle with flat pivots at its base. The case that Kate tries to steal from Sawyer, and in all the following shots, has a very different style top - NO clasps whatsoever, and it has a round, wide handle with raised round pivots. The Halliburton with clasps is also seen in "Exodus 1" with the airport security officer. (00:06:10 - 00:12:20)

Whatever the Case May Be - S1-E12
Continuity mistake: When Kate and Sawyer happen upon the lovely waterfall, Sawyer removes his shirt and he has the bandage tied round the stab wound on his upper arm. When underwater, there is a different dressing on his arm; it is snugger, with no ends - most likely an elastic type to stay put during the underwater shots. (00:02:50 - 00:04:15)

House of the Rising Sun - S1-E6
Continuity mistake: When we first see a closeup of Charlie's feet on the beehive he is stood on the actual hive. However the next time we see his feet a few minutes later he's to the side of it so Jack can place the suitcase over it. (00:08:20 - 00:11:50)

White Rabbit - S1-E5
Continuity mistake: When Sawyer asks of Boone, "So how does it feel?" Boone sits with his knees up and his arms crossed over his knees, but in Boone's close-up he sits normally with legs down, arms uncrossed. Then, as Sawyer walks away Boone sits just as in the first shot. (00:40:15)

Visible crew/equipment: When Jack is precariously hanging over the cliff, the thick safety wire attached to the front of Jack's waistband is quite visible in a few shots, as he moves about. One such instance is two shots after Locke says, "Take my hand." (00:21:35)
