Hello to all from the newbie!!

I took a bunch of pictures yesterday with my Panasonic FZ18. I used the RAW + Jpeg mode to save onto my card.

When I open the RAW image in CS3 here's what the spec's are;

16bit, 3264 X 2448, 8Mp, 300 ppi

I then open the image. Here's the issue.... If I zoom in just once I can already see some pixelzation. The more I zoom the worse it gets. I thought it might be a monitor problem so i cropped it to an 8x10 and had it printed at Wal-Mart. Didn't look too good. I have taken other pictures and printed at 18x24 and they look pretty good.

Anyone have any idea why this is happening? Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

You can not view a RAW image directly, it needs to be processed either with the software that came with the camera or a third party like Adobe. You are probably looking at the low res jpg version. I suggest you try shooting in just RAW and then you will know for sure.
