push and hold down the power button and the volume down button at the same time and it will take a screen shot after about a second of holding them down
 
... Thanks a bunch for that vid, I tried about 5 times then I figured out its all about timing. You have to hiv vol-down a microsecond before you hit power... hold them both and bam, screenshot!

dont make it that complicated. for me, if i hold the phone in my right hand, thumb on the power button, middle finger on the volume down, then squeeze. both buttons at the same time and it snapps a pic....maybe some people have issues but i certainly dont, and it isn't normal to have the timing down to a microsecond.
 
I think the issue is that on some Gnex's the volume down button is extremely sensitive. They just brush it and it starts turning down the volume.

I have not had any problems with screen captures. But I have seen some who have a lot of trouble with it.
 
yea I think it depends on your particular handset... the volume rocker can be fussy from time to time. Mine doesn't do the screenshot if you press them at the exact same time... it has to be volume just a tiny bit before power.
