what he said ^

Plus "AF-S" is a type of lens, not a type of focus setting.

Since you are using f8 or f11, DoF shouldnt be an issue. Same for SS which is more than enought to stop camera shake or subject movement. On principle I would try get ISO down to 100 if possible - but you complain of blurryness, not noise, so this shouldnt be causing the problem you descibed.
It aint the 6MP either, as I shoot 6MP, and hae no problems. All the MP does is tells you how big the file will be and subsequently how big you can print it at high quality.

conclusion: you aint focusing the camera right - either manually or automatically. If you are shooting auto focus, I would say you need to take a look at the focus points you have selected, and use the right one for the right situation. If focusing manually, you just need some practice.
