Setting timers on some camera bodies has always been hit and miss.


It's partially related to the timer gear mechanism, partially to any battery/electrical charge on hand and partially related to the camera shutter itself. Since the shutter is actually controlling what the camera records, you have to think there's some truly perverse sense of humor at play there.
