The button on a camera that is pressed to make the shutter open
The mechanism, usually a button on the top of the camera, that activates the shutter to expose the film.
Typically refers to a wired remote control (also called a "bulb") that essentially behaves like a camera's shutter release button. The use of a shutter or cable release can reduce camera vibration over using the shutter button itself.
The button you press to take the picture. Often half pressing the Shutter Release activates the autofocus, auto exposure and vibration reduction, and a full press is required to actually take the picture.

The Nikon D700 is a professional grade full-frame digital single-lens reflex camera introduced by the Nikon Corporation in July 2008 and manufactured in Japan. It uses the same 12.1 megapixel "FX" CMOS image sensor as the Nikon D3, and is Nikon's second full-frame digital SLR camera.
365/18 - Why I am not half as smart as I am supposed to be...
Here's a picture of the accessories I use with my D700 when shooting landscapes. GP-1 GPS receiver, so I don't have to remember where I was, and of course, a remote shutter release.
The connector shown above of the GP-1 developed bad conection, so I had to find a replacement. The vendor when contacted said they don't offer replacement part, so I had to put something together, which I did. But see how many extra stuff I had to use!!
