Is this a normal result from this lens?
I looked at the other tread and this lens seems to be far more blurry than the ones posted.
I appreciate any help in determining the issue!
Thanks.

Your issue is not sharpness it is contrast. Is there a fog or mildew on the lens?
Do you have any special style settings? Try using green square.

The closest focus distance is 5 feet, you might be too close.

I could be wrong but the picture appears to be washed out (lack of contrast) but not exactly blurry?
I downloaded it and did a quick contrast and brightness adjustment:

Thanks....I tried that too.
Seemed like it should be clearer than that without any "fixes"
heres one from 8 feet

And get a better test target, like this:

You need to check your exposure. There isn't anything wrong with being blurry or I can't tell until exposure is correct. Your shots are over exposed.
