Suggested correction: It's not camera equipment you're seeing; it's one of the newspaper dispensers on the sidewalk outside Luke's, at the curb. These newspaper dispensers are visible in many episodes.

Rory's Birthday Parties - S1-E6

Visible crew/equipment: While Emily is instructing the servants before the party, when she tells one servant, "I want those six inches apart, get a ruler," there are two problems with this medium shot. First, lighting equipment is visible at the top right side of the screen over the lamp, and second, it's a flipped shot. Note the painting and lamp are reversed in the medium shot, compared to the next wideshot which is fine. (00:17:45)
