EOS R Photos lack clarity, are blurry and out of focus

Hello,

I've had the EOS R for a few months now and almost every single photo is slightly blurry or out of focus when zoomed in.  I was shooting with the Rebel SL2 for years before upgrading and never had this issue! I'm so used to my photos being crystal clear and extremely sharp but I don't get that same delivery on my EOS R. I've tried a variety of lenses, both RF & EF with the Canon adapter but I can't seem to get sharp, clear images the way I was able to on my older camera.  This is super stressful being that this camera was a huge investment for me. I've triple checked all of my settings and can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong. When I zoom in, they look almost pixelated along with slightly grainy and out of focus. Yes, my shutter speed is high enough haha! If you have any clue as to why my photos are coming out softened, I would greatly appreciate your help! I tried to attach an image as an example but I'm having trouble resizing it.

OK, well who knows. Most likely not the lens. However sounds like you got it sorted so all is good.

EOS 1DX and 1D Mk IV and less lenses then before!

No it’s still unresolved. It seems the camera will need to be sent for recalibration. Which is a shame to have to do with a brand new camera…

I have a similar problem with my EOS R. Im used 100 mm macro lens for the below pic. Manual mode - You can see all the Camera setting in the below image. Camera was on a tripod . However, the text at the top of the black box is blurred. Focus was on Large Zone AF: Horizontal. Evaluative Metering. Kindly let me know if any settings need to be checked. 

Same goes for all my other pics, no matter how high the Aperture is set, only some parts are in focus.
