Once I though of doing time lapse video of my daughter making different faces. I set camera to continous focus, and started taking series of shots while she did faces (same room, same light) but she moved a little.

After reviewing results I trashed all 300+ photos, because of WB variations!

Lesson learned - preset WB according to each light situation (sunny, cloudy, bulb), at least you will have similar color shift that will be easy to fix in RAW bulk processing...

Person is taking photos, not camera. When photograph is bad, it's because photographer doesn't know how to choose settings optimal to "own preferences". Then blames camera for bad IQ.
This is same as blaming car about arriving to wrong destination.

Why trash the photos?  If you did a raw, wouldnt it be easy to set a specific white balance when doing the raw conversion?

If its JPG, its really easy to get rid of a color cast in PS.  It takes like 3-5 seconds.
