What’s the sharpest aperture of Canon 18-55mm lens?

My 18-55mm performs differently based on the focal length and the F stop used. In general F/8 gives me the sharpest image and image quality degrades at both ends of the aperture range, though F/4 and F/5.6 look a lot better than F/22 and above on MY lens.

Why is my Canon blurry?

If the shutter speed is too slow, the camera picks up that movement, and it gives you a blurry photo. Make sure your shutter speed is faster than the equivalent of your focal length. For instance, if you are zoomed out to 100mm, your shutter speed should be 1/100s or faster to avoid camera shake. You have motion blur.

How do you find the sweet spot of a lens?

The rule for finding that mid-range sweet spot is to count up two full f-stops (aperture settings are called f-stops) from the widest aperture. On my lens, the widest aperture is f/3.5. Two full stops from there would bring me to a sweet spot of around f/7.1.
