As of OS 3.1, you can definitely do this, using the takePicture method. You can hide the normal camera controls with the showsCameraControls property. So you can do exactly what you want, just set a timer or use some other UI, and then call takePicture in your timer callback. The one confusing thing I've seen is that if you call it "too soon" when the image picker isn't quite ready it appears to fail silently.
