EOS M50 photo sharpness issue

Hello, I use the EOS M50 with its 15-45mm kit lens, and I've always had an issue with the photos not being very sharp or focussed in situations where the lighting isn't perfect and the subject isn't close. I have attached a reference photo which shows the issue with sharpness/focus I see in so many of my photos (see the subjects' faces in particular). Is this just usual for this camera and lens, or is there something I'm doing wrong settings-wise? If I do simply need to upgrade my lens to be able to consistently take sharp photos, what lens should I upgrade to? For context, I mostly use my camera to take spontaneous, candid photos of people at events etc. My photo subjects are quite often at a distance of up to 10m away, I need to be able to take photos quickly with a fast shutter speed, and I like my photos to have large depth of field/everything in focus. Ideally, I also like my camera/lens to be as unobtrusive as possible. Thanks everyone! Canon M50 Sample Photo.jpg

Sorry to hear you are having issues.

  • Is your sample image the same size as the original photo?  The sample is fairly low resolution.
  • How long have you experienced this issue?
  • Do you save captured images as RAW or JPG?     

  • What is your work flow?  How do you transfer files from the camera and to what type of device?
