Sorry for the dumb question, but suddenly, I am not sure what I did, but when I playback what I have just shot, it is cropped at the top and the bottom on the RED LCD (5.6 in)... what setting have I changed? How do I get it back to normal?
When I exit playback it goes back to full frame (no crop)???
 
System - Monitor - Preview -video720p
 
I had done that, but it still cropped my shots....I must be going crazy...
 
RED LCD DISPLAY:

Two (2) round and two (2) triangular buttons are located on top of the RED™ LCD.
• The two triangular buttons (A) in the center are used to increase or decrease backlight intensity.
• Right button (B) switches display between Video plus Frame Guides and Menus, to Video plus Frame
Guides only.
• Left button (C) is User Key 5 and can be programmed. Refer to KEY-MAP under PREFERENCES in
SET UP under SYSTEM MENU CONTROLS.

This is what happens, I shoot, I don't move camera, then I playback and can you see the difference? I have tried all the buttons you mention above.
