The back of the camera is rarely a good thing to look at for evaluating pixel level sharpness. If all your shots come out a bit blurry, what lens are you using? Is it the kit lens? Looking at your exif the problems start with your shutterspeed, it says 1/19 on there which is far, far to slow. Aperture is also f4 which suggests if it is the kit lens that you are using it wide open which isn’t that good in a studio. You need more light simply. You need to get the shutter speed up to 1/125 ideally and aperture down to f8 and you’ll see much sharper photos. I would personally also use a longer focal length than 24mm when photographing people as wide angles aren’t great for people though they sometimes work for kids and babies but if you want to err on the side of caution go to 50mm instead.
