Volume down works great for me. Just press the Volume down button after opening Camera.

More and more countries are requiring that cameras do not have the ability or option to be permanently silenced due to privacy issues and inappropriate picture taking and filming of people. Unless you root your phone and edit the build.prop file, the only thing you can do is turn the volume down while in the camera app.
