Timeline making my footage overexposed

This is on a 2017 iMac running OS12.2 and Premiere 22.2.0.

So when the footage is played in finder or QT or in Premiere in source monitor it looks just like it does when played on the iphone, when I drop it into the program monitor it becomes WAY overexposed... see attached. Other footage shot with GH5 or Sony A7siii looks the same everywhere - as it should.

Any ideas what up? Something I'm doing wrong on the import? HELP.

Seems like the attached photo is TINY? Not sure what's going on. but you can still see the bottom is way brighter than the top.

Photo's a thumbnail and too small to see, but any chance a LUT in Premiere is being automatically applied to the footage?

[This is a default process in FCP if the application recognizes one of the cameras it has built-in LUT transformation presets for.]

If not, maybe it's a gamma camera/post setting?
 
NorBro - THX... the new Seq / Change Settings to Match helped. Seems like it is a 709 vs 2100 HLG. Gotta go run some errands - but will investigate more ASAP. Perhaps I can convert in Media Encoder.
 
I had something similar with Sony XAVC-I footage on the latest Premiere. The solution was to select all problem clips in the project panel, right-click - modify - interpret footage. Then I forced it to process footage as REC709 rather than the automatically-detected S-Log 3 it was set to. It does seem to be some kind of auto LUT.
