After some Googling, I've found this excellent and simple method by Ivan Glisin which works very well:
No need for 1.30. Do the following with 1.31:
In the root directory of your memory card create or copy a text file named
MODSET.TXT
with only one line in it:
[OPEN_DEBUG_MENU]
After inserting card back to the camera, to enable debug mode do the following:
1. Switch camera off.
2. Open card door and leave it open.
3. Switch camera on -- debug menu shows up.
4. Close card door.
5. Left/right to enable debug mode.
6. Press OK to confirm.
7. Go to Set-Up menu, go to the end and Set-up will change to TEST MODE menu, AF TEST option is there with Focus Corr inside.
To disable debug mode:
1. Switch camera off.
2. Open card door and leave it open.
3. Switch camera on -- debug menu shows up.
4. Close card door.
5. Left/right to disable debug mode.
6. Press OK.
Note: you can permanently leave MODSET.TXT file on your card.
