I feel it's OM camera issue.

I've been importing raws for years from Sony and earlier from Pentax and didn't experience it.

In fact searching for "OM image corruption" shows bunch of results not related to Apple Photo.

My guess is that OM has buggy SD driver which starts deletion before actual read finished.

I ran into the same corruption issue without any sort of RAW images and without using OM camera. My partner was pissed at me, thinking it was my fault. But it turns out that Apple Photos is to blame!

But OP says they tried different SD card readers. And, now that Macbooks have SD card readers and every desktop dock and type c dongle thing has one, who even uses the camera to transfer photos?
