See also the Image Capture bug from several years ago where it appends a ton of empty data to imported photos:

(I'm not sure whether this bug has been fixed or not yet, though I think it has been fixed.)

Image Capture did me dirty once. Macbook ran out of space while importing photos but it never stopped and kept on deleting photos from my iPhone. Lost 5K photos of a wedding... submitted a bug and hopefully it has been rectified.

Image Capture hasn't had a delete after import checkbox for a few versions now, I think.
