There is a strap you can attach to cameras without the thread in the shutter (such as point and shoots, or modern SLRs which usually utilise a remote or a socket separate to the shutter) which has the a little nubbin on it into which you screw the cable release, which then pushes the other side of the nubbin into the button.

If that's not clear (I just read it back to myself; it isn't ), then a shot of one will show you what I mean:

(Enlarge the picture).

Perhaps the strap is long enough to fully wrap around the required device, but otherwise you could perhaps remove the velcro strap and adapt the button.

Cheers,
