Thanks for all the replies. I don't want to sound argumentative, but I have 6 other lenses and they seem fine to me....so why all the comments that the camera's the problem? I'm just trying to understand the logic.

I was previously thinking using the 18-55 as a knockabout lens was the way to go. A shame I'd lose the 56-150 range, but I'd rather have higher IQ.

Focus settings: I always use single point (standard size rectangle thingy) and one-shot for static subjects.

If I had this issue (and I have an EF-M 18-150mm lens), I would try this:

a) Is it possible that camera shake happened when shooting this picture?

b) Have you tried to shoot using a tripod?

c) Have you checked the lens IS?

d) You can check where is your focus point within the camera or Canon DPP. Where is it?

e) Is your lens firmware updated?

You can find the latest firmware here:

I processed your image using stabilize setting on Topaz Sharpen AI, and here is the processed image:
