It's a legality thing if I'm not remembering wrong. For the environment to have a chance to react to creeps taking photos when they shouldn't.

I remember it from a thread on SGS3 forum I think. The shutter sound was there even if phone was muted. Only way to stop it was removing the shutter sound file and for that root was needed, or a repackaged firmware.

I think it's a good thing even if it can be annoying for some.

Just rename the corresponding wav file then.

Code:
/system/media/audio/camera/sound1/

The sound file used in this case is located in the SemcCameraUI.all file, so you can't just delete it I guess. Plus it's odexed, if that makes any difference...

The sound is not in the folder neither it is in any of the folders before. I couldn't find it somewhere but the sound is still really annoying...

If you have xposed framework you can download module that disables this sound
