Re: colour shift under big lighting

You are right re RAW files. I should of mentioned that I shoot JPG at the 
swim meets,  mostly because I need the speed and to be able to hold lots of 
images on my CF cards. So, the process I described about locking in the 
white balance and then applying an adjustment curve in Photoshop is really 
only germane to shooting JPG's.  If you are shooting RAW you have the 
flexibility when you open the file, so it's not much of an issue.

but the RAW converter has a white balance setting. i never take my camera 
off of Auto WB. if i see one that is off during conversion and know a 
bunch are the same, i set it and the rest of the group to the color 
temperature i want and convert. AWB doesn't choose discrete, well 
separated values. it chooses over a fairly finely spaced values on 
purpose.
