It's necessary to read back to earlier posts, JPEG is the way to get more pictures without getting into buffer saturation, that was in on of the initial posts about working around the buffer saturation of the K1 in RAW. Apparently you did not read my posts and you jumped in for some reasons..

Yes, it's called AWB. And, the only way to get the white balance correct by post processing RAW is to have a white reference in the frame, when not having a white reference in the frame, shifting of white balance is arbitrary. But if colors aren't loyal to real vision, it isn't necessarily a problem, important is the get pleasing colors in the image output, that can be done via AWG, tweak of colors at RAW conversion and even manual in camera. I set the camera to daylight if I want to. The bottom line is, getting on location before the event starts and before it's crowded in order to take some test shots and alter camera settings to get intended result when the subject is there.
I arrive a few hours before, take some test shots at multiple locations due to varying lighting, that's how I set exposure parameters and white balance, and that allow to shoot in JPEG. Anyway, I feel like back to kinder garden again. I'm afraid that it's not because someone has a "title" that the title gets the exclusivity of the results. Anyone, can, go out and photographs, get good images, as a hobby, or professionally.
