Thanks to all of you. I truly appreciate all of your words.
After spending 6 hours searching the Internet today, reading your answers, and trying things out on my camera, I think I've been using the autofocus wrong and misusing the focus recompose method by focusing on one plane and moving the focus to another plane not realizing the plane change. I don't think it's my lenses being soft, (although that may contribute a tad, but not to the degree of fuzziness I'm getting) but focusing.
I also need to work on choosing better settings. I get scared of an underexposed shot or motion blur from too slow of a SS so I bump the ISO. I'll try to stop that one too.
Thanks again everyone!!
