Thanks, Corson, for bringing back the life of such legendary camera. It is also encouraging to hear many happy ending stories.

But I am still struggling to justify the cost. Not mean to against the repair, but I wonder if the cost is similar to a 2nd hand FZ1000, should I do it. (yeah, I know, only I can answer the question). It may make sense if the purpose is to keep this good old friend in healthy condition, regardless how often I am going to use it. 

I agree "Thanks, Corson, for bringing back the life of such legendary camera." The Digilux 2 was a very good camera indeed.

Hello there, my name is jasper and i bought a broken d2 today for 30 bucks( i couldn't resist) anyone who has found a place to buy  Panasonic DMC-LC1 sensors? Im afraid that soldering my d2 will break it.

You could get them on eBay at one point. Also, a fairly popular camera from Sony used them. I don't remember the model number, but that should be on the web somewhere, and if you find one of those cameras on eBay you could dig the sensor out of it.
