The 5DMK2 outer focus point should work just fine in this light.
It looks more like you need to MicroAdjust. Even in the close up it appears that the lens is backfocusing.
My lens appear to be having slight front focus so I dialed +8 to help correct it...I\'ll have to play with other MA settings to see if it help

Are you recomposing after acquiring focus? This would become more problematic at greater distances if you are using the center focus point because your subject has the potential of being farther from that point, thus requiring greater movement of your camera (and potential alteration of the focal plane) during the recomposition. I agree with others that I wouldn\'t worry....yet. Keep at it and see if things don\'t improve once you\'ve had a chance to work with the lens for a while.
I don\'t focus recompose in close up, only far distance subject since I supposedly getting bigger DOF and thought the slight focus shift wouldn\'t be a problem, but when I looked at the grass infront or behind the subject, none in focus, that\'s why i realize it wasn\'t front or back focus in most of those shots...
