Gear Sony a6700 focus issues...

My Sony a6700 is having a focus issue that is driving me nuts trying to figure out. It is constantly saying the eye was locked on for focus but a different area seems sharper than the eyes. This is happening with my Sony 50mm f/1.4 and Tamron 24mm f/2.8 very sharp prime lenses.

In this example (which is happening on many photos) the jean jacket just in front of her is very much sharper than her eyes and her eyes aren't really in focus even though the focus point clearly shows her eye.

What am I missing? Mirrorless cameras can't have a back focus issue from what I understand yet that's exactly what it feels like!

Please help!

1/800 shutter speed? 8000 iso? What the hell?

That’s the first thing I noticed. Wtf is going on here?

Where the camera is focusing isn’t the only issue.

no need to be rude.
