FFMPEG hangs (sometimes) when trying to take a photo from USB camera?

Question

I am attempting to write a script that takes a photo every 3 seconds from camera source "1", the -pix_fmt I think is unique to my USB camera.

Here is the script:

#!/bin/bash

set -e

while :
do
  nice_num=$(date +%s)
  
  ffmpeg -ss 00:00:00 -f avfoundation -pix_fmt yuyv422 -r 30.000030 -i "1" -t 1 -frames:v 1 -q:v 2 "image_$nice_num_%03d.jpg"
  
  wait

  sleep 3
done

The issue is half the time it successfully takes the photo, and half the time it just hangs forever echoing this (not useful):

Then I CTRL-C 3 times and get:

Other methods of "taking a photo every n seconds from bash" are also appreciated.
