Did I screw up? - Import FS-100 -> FCP -> 960x720

I've imported a ton of footage into FCP and started editing. I did an Easy Setup DVCProHD 720p24. That is the same mode I used on the camera.

If I drag a clip to the timeline and check the properties it says 960x720. Shouldn't it be 1280x720?

It looks okay in the viewer and when I export as a quicktime movie, but if I export a still, or a do a quicktime conversion it looks squished. In addition, if I export the quicktime movie and import into DVD studio, it look squished there.

Did I have FCP setup wrong when I did the capture?
 
I'm no FCP expert (or user for that matter), but the source material is in fact 960x720 using anamorphic (non-square) pixels.
