I recently just picked up the Canon M50 (body only) and the EF-M 18*150 mm lens. But every time I take a photo, the quality is horrible and whenever I focus the camera the focus areas are extremely small on any AF setting. Typically, I prefer that most, if not all of be focal length is in focus. Any way on how to fix this?

Were these pictures taken in JPEG or RAW. I recommend using RAW and Canon's DPP Photo editor. If JPEG what quality is it set to Small, Medium or Large. The pictures are too small to see what's in focus or not. I noticed that you were using F/4.5 with the M50. But with your old DSLR you were using F/22. F/22 would have more in focus than F/4.5 would.

I disagree with Demetrius. The distant objects could have been in sharper focus because they were well beyond the hyperfocal distance. Everything beyond 15 feet should have been in sharp focus at f/4.5.
I hate to say it, but the problem is the lens itself. Super zooms tend to be soft.
