Is this element misalignment or something else?

you shot at 1/800 and it looks like mush -- unless you had IS on and it's causing the problem, I'd say the lens has a fault.

Precisely. I bought the lens used from amazon almost two years ago, and I never had any issues with it until the past few months. It's had some bumps and all, but never any serious drops. At this point I'm just curious if anybody has ever seen anything like this so that I can know where to point Canon.

Do you have your camera set to continuous auto focus while the focal point is over the subject?

did you even look at the photo?

this is not a focus point issue.

Settle down some?

I asked a simple question, no need to get bent out of shape.
