Import video question

Question

Complete beginner here...do be kind. When I import a video clip into AE to stabilize camera shake, the image is tiny. I'm assuming I need proper settings on my dslr, which I did set according to the manual. Do I need to alter them at import? Any help greatly appreciated.

Zoom-out in Composition, Layer, or Footage panel	, (comma)	, (comma)
Zoom to 100% in the Composition, Layer, or Footage panel	/ (on main keyboard)	/ (on main keyboard)
Zoom to fit in Composition, Layer, or Footage panel	Shift + / (on main keyboard)	Shift + / (on

I frequently use Shift + / followed by , (comma) one time to be able to see the Comp well based on the current width and height of the Composition panel.
