Deux Ex Machina - S1-E19

Visible crew/equipment: When Boone climbs up the vines toward the plane, in the first wide shot there is a rather conspicuous round CG blur at Boone's left hip that moves as he moves. Then, in some following wide shots the black stunt belt at Boone's waist is perfectly visible as he makes his way up. In Boone's close-ups no such aids are on his body. (00:30:35)

Exodus (1) - S1-E23

Visible crew/equipment: There is a crew / filming boat visible in the top right hand corner of the screen right after Sawyer retrieves the rudder and is pulled on board the raft. Right after Michael says "You just saved our ass, buddy" the camera pans up and the crew boat is visible for two seconds. Green hull, gray cabin with a flap flapping in the wind.

Exodus (2) - S1-E24

Visible crew/equipment: As the "rescue" boat nears the raft with Jin, Sawyer, Michael and Walt, it has a spotlight shining on the four aboard the raft. That spotlight is the only light source in the area, yet the boat is bathed in bright light from behind, which also reflects in the boat's pole. (01:12:00)

Enter 77 - S3-E11

Visible crew/equipment: When John looks through the binoculars at the start, it reflects 2 big white squares which, considering they are in the jungle looking at a blue/rust coloured building, it appears to be part of the filming equipment. Perhaps a light screen? (00:06:20)

Deux Ex Machina - S1-E19

Continuity mistake: When Jack speaks to Michael and Jin, as they build the raft, and then when he walks up the beach and inquires about Sawyer's trouble with his head, the backpack that Jack carries on his back is nylon, black/green with white trim. Yet, when Sawyer asks, "Sensitivity to light, that bad?" the backpack is suddenly transformed into solid black leather, of an entirely different style. Then, in following shots it jumps back and forth. (00:16:40)
