Exposure fluctuations

Hello there,

I was on a shoot this weekend with the 5D Mark II with the newest firmware update. The top dial was set to M for manual. During playback of a shot that passed behind a blond actor's head, it is beyond obvious that the camera was doing some sort of auto correction on exposure (as the blond hair filled the frame, exposure would drop; once his head was out of frame, exposure rose again to the original levels). I scoured through all of the settings to try and figure out what was going on, but couldn't find anything at all.

Any ideas on what could be causing this would be most helpful!

Thanks!
