Visible crew/equipment: After starting their four day journey through the long dark of Moria, a few shots later Gandalf pulls on his hat brim, and just as he walks (with Legolas close behind) to his left (towards the viewer's right), up some stairs, the black electrical cable leading from the staff to under the robe's left sleeve is visible.

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring is the movie based upon the book that sets the stage for the rest of the Trilogy by Peter Jackson. Hobbits, men, a dwarf and an elf embark on a great journey to destroy the One Ring, defeat the evil Sauron, Saruman, the orcs and other terrors. It's an extraordinary adventure in the original or extended versions.
Trivia: While filming the trilogy, Viggo Mortensen got so into character that, during a conversation with Peter Jackson, Jackson addressed him as "Aragorn" for more than half an hour, and Mortensen didn't even realize it.
Question: In the scene where Gandalf and Saruman are fighting in the tower Saruman takes Gandalf's staff and sends him to the top of the tower. What happened to Gandalf's staff? When he escapes he somehow gets his staff back and uses it the rest of the movie. Is it another similar staff, or am I missing something?
