it looks like your focus planes didn't land in the same spot. The most notable difference is with your EF-S lens. At first glance, it looks worse than the other at the wide end, but better than the others at the long end. On closer inspection, it appears to be front focused in the wide shot and back focused for the tele shot.

The camera was not moved between lens changes. The only reason I can think of a missed focus is due to the large focus box of the M3. The brick pillar at the end of the wall took up nearly all of the focus box at 55mm which might make focus at the long end more accurate. I also made sure the camera firmware was updates with the EF-S lens correction profile although this shouldn't affect AF either way.  I probably should have used focus peaking.
