A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I have a 50mm prime lens that's really awful at focusing. How do I learn to manually focus for street photography?

I find photographing pets to be good practice. They move quickly, quicker than most humans. If you can manual focus a playful puppy, you are ready to hit the streets.
