I agree, although it looks more like miss-focus,  that is the only one that
comes close to what that lens can produce...

There are unlikely to be issues with any R lens, it is the standard to wide
M lenses that are more problematic....

Tina, I think shutter speed and shallow DoF are hurting your efforts on some
of these.  Regardless of the old rule of thumb, I would suggest you try to
use 1/200 with this lens.  I feel that the sharpest image you showed is the
feather with water droplets, which shows 1/160 at f/5.6.  
That seems to be a sweet spot.
