Main camera moves upwards on play

Hello,

I need the camera to start at its position, but when I press play, it jumps upwards a few feet. I don't understand why it's doing this. Thanks for any help!

Now, the camera is flipping around 180 degrees on play - this also happens with an untouched Main Camera in a new scene in the same project. Any ideas are great!!

 

Are you sure you're looking at your camera (game view) and not the scene view?
You can align the camera with the scene view like this: Select the Camera (GameObject) that you would like to look through while in the Scene view. Then go to the "GameObject" Menu and select "Align View to Selected".

Also these kind of questions better suited for the Editor and General Support topic, since nothing to do with physics.
