Sharpness issues on a high-res body? Check the lens filter first.
UPDATED THREAD TITLE to remove “R5 lockups and sensor alignment”, which turned out to not be the issue.
My R5 sensor sharpness across the frame was perfect until I started having lockups. Now the entire left edge (when shooting horizontally) of the image frame at infinity focus is blurred and not in alignment.
