Erm...every lens needs to be in focus, not just a new lens. Focussing is very basic, if you prefocus then shift your position, at wide open apertures, you will definitely lose focus of the subject.
ISO-400 (image 16) is definitely not considered "high ISO". ISO-800 (images 12-15) yes, it may be considered high but it shouldn't make the image as soft as the ones you've displayed. They're soft simply because they're out of focus.
The A200 handles ISO 800 in the sense that "...the noise reduction is much more heavy-handed resulting in visible smearing of fine detail without really eliminating the noise. You end up with a large amount of fairly unpleasantly intrusive blurred chroma noise blotches." - dpreview but it has nothing to do with the lack of focus.
Just practice more and if you feel that your camera can't handle high ISOs well, then I'd suggest a tripod and shooting at a lower ISO and a slightly lower shutter speed. Some of your shots are ISO-800 but 1/125. You should be able to hand-hold the camera with a 50mm lens with a shutter speed of about 1/60 which means you can roughly go 1 stop lower in ISO (ISO-400).
But the gist of it all is to keep shooting and not find excuses that the camera is not good enough etc...you should master your camera first before saying that it's not good enough.
Don't look like OOF to me, seem to be Motion blur (Could you advice the SS) and/or photo underexpose and TS increase the exposure in PP resulting some details to appear grainy or excessive croping in PP (insufficient resolution).... or is ISO 400/800 really a problem , then you may need to send the camera for checking.
Can U provide more EXIF data like
1. SS
2. ISO
3. Apecture
4. Shoot in raw or JPG
5. Original was it under expose (or overexpose) or OK. It will be good if you can post an orginal of say the last photo.
6. Any cropping done.
7. PHoto take with Auto or manual focus and on which point
just for 1 or 2 of the photos
P/S : with OOF, normally another part of the photo should be sharp but this is not in the case with most of those seen here.
Agreed with the advice already given, don't blame the camera (tool), a craftman must understand his tool.
Best regards

All the exif is attached to the images. No need to look around too much.
Also, in many of the pics, another section IS sharp. For example:
1. Pic 16: Sharp at the lips, but not the eyes. EXIF shows f/1.7; very shallow DOF
2. Pic 13: the back part of the hair is sharp, not the face.
3. Pic 7: scale is sharp, model is not...
It just keeps going on. Basic newbie mistakes of not knowing how to handle large aperture lenses. It's not motion blur.
TS: No need to think of upgrading your body. Any camera, from any brand,will give you these results until you learn how to use the tool properly.
THanks Rasnkae, how do you see the EXIF from the photo? mind to share
Do a search on here for "how to see EXIF". Google will work too.

I'm very surprised that at this day and age there are still people who can't search for basic info on their own and depend on other people to spoonfeed them. Can't believe that such mentality still exist.
I have to accept it as a fact now, and if I ask some questions again in future I will have to state that certain ppl(who thinks that others are lazy) don't need to answer!it does in CS hahaha you will realise it soon enuff

I agree with what some CS members said in this thread.
The theme doesn't really portray a housewife kind of "feel".
The poses suggests that it is just "posing for the photo" and not posing for the theme.
Not pin-pointing the model but housewife may not be a good theme, maybe family lifestyle would be better for these photos?
