It's been my experience that all lenses of this type-- but I'd include virtually all kit lenses that produce out-of-camera images that are a bit soft.  The good news is that they typically sharpen up nicely in editing.  If you want them sharper OOC just bump up the in camera sharpness.  Note:  sharpness is different than resolution.  We all should know the difference.

My Panasonic 12-32 is a good example of this-- soft out of camera, but sharpens nicely.  My Oly 14-150 and Tamron 14-150 fit in this class too.  I really like the better build quality of the Tamron and kept it rather than the others.
