cable release
Remote camera button
A cable release is a flexible cord that attaches to a camera, allowing the photographer to trigger the shutter without touching the camera body.
This prevents vibration that could blur the image, especially during long exposures or macro photography: She used a cable release for the night sky shots.
Modern equivalents are often wireless or electronic.
