Sounds like my Yashica A; it requires a Cable Release Adapter (aka "leica
nipple"), click on the B&H link below for more info.

There is a small knurled bezel at the base of the shutter release button.
This unscrews, then you screw the adapter on in its place. The adapter takes
a regular mechanical shutter release cable.

I just got one of these in anticipation of the 4th.
