I have tried adjusting that and I am pretty sure its in the right location. I used auto focus on other lenses and it seems perfect.

Are you using the focus confirmation dot in the view finder, or just trying to see when things look sharp?

Yes I always look for the green dot. I have even taken pictures of books with words and there will be a small part that is in focus but never the whole line of text.
For reference, this is a picture I took using the lens and it is bang on sharp (in my opinion) but it was at f3.5 which I don't have as many problems with.
But for every 100 pictures I take there is only 1 or 2 that are sharp and it seems like a waste of time.
