Isabella - S1-E12

Visible crew/equipment: After Paulie and Silvio hug AJ and Meadow at the hospital, when Meadow tells them Tony is with Carmela, we can see the boom pole and mic's moving reflection on the glass, at the top of the screen. Then, as AJ tells Meadow that he doesn't believe it was a carjacking, the mic's reflection dips into view again on the glass.

Isabella - S1-E12

Visible crew/equipment: While Corrado and Mikey are at Mariolina's wake, just as Corrado says, "Where he spills his guts on some shrink's carpet," we can see the yellow tape mark on the carpet where Corrado had been standing.

Moe n' Joe - S6-E10

Visible crew/equipment: After Vito drives by Satriale's, it cuts to the televised football game at the Soprano house, and when Meadow hands Bobby the beer, the reflection of overhead set lighting is visible on the side table's glass top.

Big Girls Don't Cry - S2-E5

Visible crew/equipment: When Furio goes into the massage parlour, Furio is going towards the back, and the door on the side gets flung open. You can see that it doesn't open all the way, and tube lights are visible. (00:40:45)

The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti - S1-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Agents Harris and Russo knock on Tony's glass door from the backyard to ask him to open the door from the main entrance in order to explain to their kids that they're "having visits", as Tony closes the glass door, a stage light is reflected on it. (00:36:24)

The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti - S1-E8

Visible crew/equipment: When Tony gets out of the car to go looking for the weapons hidden in Livia's room at the nursing home, the camera and a big light panel are reflected on the car's door when Tony closes it, as well as the dolly track, which is on the steel bumper before the shot goes forward on Tony while rescuing the bag from the trunk.

Knight in White Satin Armor - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When Janice is trying on her wedding gown with Carmela, her tattoo is gone. However, in all the other shots, her tattoo is above her cleavage line, between her boobs. It's nowhere to be seen in the wedding dress shots.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Actually, her tattoo is visible. The style of the wedding dress she had on was obviously chosen for the way that it NEARLY covered up the tattoo. It is easily seen if your eyes are not glued to her cleavage near the 19 minute mark.

Sorry. There is no way her tattoo is covered up. I looked at the prior engagement party scene and jumped to the wedding dress, this is an error. There is no covering it up.

The tattoo is there and it is definitely covered up. Look at her right boob, not left, since we are seeing a reflection of her in the mirror, and you'll find that tattoo all right.

Suggested correction: Actually there is more than one shot where you can't see the tattoo at all. It depends on the angle. In most shots the top of the tattoo is always visible and in others it's not at all.
