Single focus point was the mermaid's face

Single focus point was my dog's left eye. She wasn't moving.

User error. 1/3 and 1/8 is too slow for a non stabilized shot at that focal length. The mermaid shot is also at f/22 which causes a lot of diffraction softening. The battery issue i cant speak on but in these shots there is nothing wrong with the gear.

I agree, in fact I would go further and say that even with a stabilised lens (and I have an IBIS body and stabilised lenses) without stable support unless standing, holding, breathing and pressing (the shutter) techniques are all to high marksman standards (and I was one) that these shutter speeds are too slow to gain consistently sharp images as any one technique poorly applied could induce camera movement at the critical time the shutter is released.
