OM-3 released in March. As of the last update to supported cameras (Sept), OM-3 is still not on the list. The OM-5 mark ii came out in July and is supported by Apple Raw.
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
Original Title: When will Pixelmator support the OM-3? The camera has been out for more than 6 months.
As far as I know, the only devices that save photos in Apple ProRAW format are certain iPhones. (ProRAW format is a variant of Adobe's .DNG (digital negative) format that lets iPhones record some computational photography data.)
If you are referring to Raw files in the generic sense,
Pixelmator Support – Working with RAW images
"Note: Pixelmator Pro relies on macOS for RAW support, so the RAW files you can edit in macOS Photos can be edited using Pixelmator Pro."
I don't see the Olympus OM-3 in that list – and nobody here can answer the question of when Apple will add OM-3 support to the macOS Raw support libraries. Because Adobe's Raw conversion code supports OM-3 Raw files, one option might be to use Adobe's Digital Negative Converter to create .DNG files from the OM-3 Raw files … and then import those .DNG files into Pixelmator.

You might need to play around with the output settings in the DNG converter to discover which is the latest version of the .DNG format that Pixelmator will accept.

By the way, Apple acquired the Pixelmator products. There are Mac versions of Pixelmator Pro and Photomator in the App Store, but the plain version of Pixelmator seems to have been discontinued. (Photomator also has iPhone, iPad, and Vision Pro versions.)
After I followed the App Store link to the Pixelmator Pro Web site, I found this support page:
Pixelmator Support – Working with RAW files in Pixelmator Pro
"If you have a new camera that isn't supported yet, you can still edit unsupported RAW photos by converting them to DNG files."
