Introduction
This guide explains the location of exterior screws and the process to remove the rear panel of the Canon Powershot A70 camera. This is often the first step to many fixes for this device, and the rear panel itself will need to be replaced after years of use. This can be performed with easy-to-use tools and requires no special skills to complete.
