I had the same issue but I've found a way around it.
I have switched off OneDrive's camera backup and instead use the android app "OneSync" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ttxapps.onesyncv2&hl=en-US) - it allows you to sync between your android phone/tablet and OneDrive, selecting any folder you choose and can sync bothways or upload/download only!
