Raw images get distorted in Photo

When I open Raw images in Photo they often get distorted, see example image. I use an IPhone 12 Pro (14.4.2) and masOS Mojave (10.14.6) on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015). It's a serious problem. Anyone any ideas? Thanks very much in advance, Ruurd


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14

Is the format Apple Pro Raw?

On a Mac you should upgrade to macOS 11 Big Sur for Apple Pro Raw to be fully supported, see: About Apple ProRAW - Apple Support

"ProRAW uses the industry standard digital negative (DNG) file format, so you can open ProRAW files with apps that are compatible with DNG files. For the best experience, however, use apps that are compatible with ProRAW files, like the Photos app on your iPhone with iOS 14.3 or later or on a Mac with macOS Big Sur 11.1 or later."
