<p>This is my first time working with anamorphic red footage. When I view footage in the source monitor, all anamorphic clips are sheared diagonally (image below):
<a href="https://i.sstatic.net/mohvU.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/mohvU.png" alt="enter image description here"></a> </p>

<p>The problem does not persist when the footage is playing back, or when I'm viewing it on the timeline, or through RED Player. </p>

<p>It only shears when paused within the source monitor, as well as viewing RED R3D Source settings. How can I fix this?</p>

I have a similar issue with H.264 footage from a Canon 60D.

Could you put somewhere original footage, so we could mess around with it? I don't have R3D footage, so can't check if something works.

# Premiere distorts 2.0 anamorphic R3D footage when paused in the source viewer

Just finished working with exact same sort of footage. I never got that issue.

* Update Premiere CC.
* Start a new project from scratch. Import one R3D file and create a sequence from it. See what happens.
* Create a new project in another editing program, one that can read R3D footage. Create brand new sequence, see what happens.
