That red light you are referring to is the AF assist lamp or AF-Illuminator. This red light helps the camera to focus in low light situations to take sharper pictures.

Can Call MS Color at 64576380 to find the price. Look for Mr Loh or Florence

not sure about the fx7 but on the fz5 , it can be turned off.
however, the red light is used by the camera in low light condition to illuminate the target to better gauge the correct exposure setting.
so turning it off will probably mean your images may risk being under or over exposed, etc.
