I find that my 5d2 has focusing issues with wide apertures when shooting under florescence light with all my lens. This has been very annoying for me even though i don't shoot that much in this light environment. is this just me or this is normal behavior? Under natural light I have no issues.

Fluorescence lights really screw AF up.

Interesting read, it says that they have improved the AF system in 5d2 but in my case its hard to say if they have or not. I need to check my firmware later tonight to see if that can make a difference.
