Oct 4, 2017 at 16:25 comment added OnBreak. When you say that you stopped down to f/18 and the scene still wasn't in focus, are you referring to what you saw through the viewfinder or are you talking about the picture after it was taken? Adjusting the aperture in setting doesn't change what you see, unless you use the DoF preview button. Please post all of your attempts, ideally with exif data in tact. Thanks!

Oct 4, 2017 at 15:30 comment added osullic It's important to remember that a lens is always focussed on only one distance. You cannot focus on multiple distances at the same time. Things at different distances can be rendered "acceptably in focus" through the "illusion" of depth of field, but still, the lens is focused only at one distance.

Oct 4, 2017 at 14:25 comment added twalberg Also, what focal length were you using? Depth of field has an inverse relationship to focal length and aperture, while it has a proportional relationship to focus distance and f-number. And, yes, I know that aperture and f-number are the really same thing, but have their own inverse relationship in how you think about them...
