You also can't white balance on the TD housings either but I just managed to pick up this bunch for just over a grand from Ebay in the US.
just need to get it across from my mate in Maryland where it was delivered. Inside it will go the HC42 I have at the moment. However, powering on and off, does conduct an 'auto' white balance so that might be an option I could use.

Top Dawg Underwater Video Compatibility
I have used the Sony TRV30, Sony TRV900, Sony HDR HC3 HDV camera in this housing and they all have worked perfectly.
All controls are magnetic and allow access to Power on/off, Zoom in/out, toggle between manual focus and auto, toggle between video mode and picture mode,
Housing comes with two back plates, A standard back and a Monitor back that is powered by 4 AA batteries. The Monitor back makes it very easy to veiw your subject while shooting.
Housing comes with a UR Pro Cyan Filter that covers the entire window port, this will allow you to change the filter on the outside of the housing while diving.
Housing comes with extra orings/oring lube/pelican travel case.
Housing comes with 2 Mini 40watt lights, 2 chargers and two brand new batteries.
I have used this housing on about 40 dives over the last 1.5 years and it has performed flawlessly.It is in excellent condition and will perform for years to come.
All this brand new would cost over $2400 dollars.
