Kyle,
You will be lucky if Sherry even looks at your defunct Digilux. It is
a Fuji through and through regardless of the red dot. The Fuji
Digiluxes were not the most reliable of cameras. The internal computer
seemed to be possessed of an internal demon which would cause it to
shut down at random intervals. The only way to fix it was to remove
the battery and let the camera sit for a day or two until all internal
charges had dissipated. This would reboot the computer. Install a
freshly charged battery and the camera would probably start right up.
Give it a try. It's a lot cheaper than postage.
