I've seen shifts like that whenever I'm working in conditions where  
there is flourescent lighting, with any camera. The cycling of  
fourescent lights is what's to blame, in my opinion. They only hold a  
particular color temperature for a fraction of a second, their color  
temperature is only an integral considered over time. A short exposure  
catches a slice of that total temperature transition.
