Hi Feli,

You have to break it down and assign tasks to your fingers:

One or two of them on your left hand to focus. then, with your other 
hand, use one finger to press the shutter, and another, preferably the 
thumb, to advance the film.

It should work. Of course, if you're left-handed, or with dynamic 
action, the rapidwinder is it!
