Setting the white balance manually is great until you forget.
A while back I was taking some indoor shots and had set the camera to Tungsten, I looked out of the window and saw a chance to take some unusual wildlife shots. It was one of those events when I only had time to point the camera and shot away. When I looked at the shots they had a very bad blue hue, so had to reverse that all in the PC, not difficult, but takes time. If I'd tried to change the white balance back I would have missed the shots. I now leave the camera on AWB as much as possible so I don't have this problem.
