Hi Mike,
Forgive me if you've done this before, but you'll get the best color temperature results if you use a gray card (as Marvin implied), particularly with mixed temperature light sources. Using the PRE setting on your camera, have someone hold a gray card around 6" in front of whatever you're photographing. Then get close enough so that the gray card is the only thing in your viewfinder and take a picture. (The manual explains the detailed steps). This will store to memory the white balance for your particular lighting setup. Then you can use this setting for the rest of your photoshoot. However if you change the angle you're photographing from, or change the position of the lights, you'll need to do the procedure again.
You can get gray cards from most camera shops. Ritz Camera has them for around $12. They're worth every penny, and more, when you see the color difference in your photos.
Regards,
Holly
