The side focus points will always be a little softer than the middle because lenses are always sharpest at the center.

It is true the lens is sharper at the center, but the side focus points should not be.  Remember, the LiveView AF is giving sharp focus, but the standard AF is not.

I still maintain the side standard focus points should give a good focus.  Otherwise why would we have 51 AF points?  Or is everyone still using the center focus point, half-pressing to set the focus, then moving the camera to compose?
