Currently, compared to every other Canon body I own and use, (6 others in total) my new 5D2 is exposing wedding dresses consistantly about a full stop than any other body I own. Like you I am surprised and dissapointed by the performance of the flash metering on this new body. I am required to rethink how I use flash at wedding because of this. You\'ll need the flash exposure button a lot.
I have over a thousand weddings experience and so far this is the most inconsistant performance I\'ve had from a new body.

Funny you say that, I found myself messing with the FEC a lot yesterday, a lot more than I ever did on my 1d3, 5d, 30d, or xt.
