I just looked it up myself and found this link over at EOSHD:

https://www.eoshd.com/comments/topic/19465-dev-menu-ois-calibration-safe-to-perform/

This calibrates only the OIS in the lens though - not sure wether this helps, but worth a shot. To test whether the OIS is the culprit you could try switchingit off when you take a shot with a tripod...

Thanks for your opinion about the lens - it's good to know that something seems to be wrong. Unfortunately I am on firmware 1.12 and I tried to enter DEV mode earlier but it did not work so I'm not sure I can try to recalibrate OIS. But I can switch it off and try again - that's a good idea.

Otherwise I will probably look for a replacement lens since they are quite cheap at the moment.
