graphicsimage captureiphonephotos
macbook pro catalina 10.15.7, iphone 7 ios 14.2. Here is a screen of some pictures in the camera roll that were taken with the phone.
When i connect the phone to the mac book pro and open image capture, i get duplicates and there is an "E" added to the file name and the duplicates files seem to be smaller in size. Question – what causes these duplicates and why arent they showing in the camera roll on the phone?
The forum build of DropBox will do that for you. I'm not sure if you can specify exactly what folder (by default it goes in a folder called 'Camera Imports' in your dropbox folder). It will even earn you more space.
I found that Image Capture is still available and I can set it to be the default to launch when I plugin in my iphone as well.
To do that run Image Capture (click the search icon in the top right of the menu bar and type Image Capture.
Then in the bottom left there is the option for what should happen when your phone is connected.

E photos are edited.
The text you added to the photo creates an IMG_Exxxx.JPG file with the changes you made.
The original is preserved as IMG_xxxx.JPG which can be reverted to using the Revert button in the Photos app when editing a photo.
