Weak radiative baryonic B decays $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2\gamma$ mediated by the electromagnetic penguin process $b\to s\gamma$ have appreciable rates larger than their two-body counterparts $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2$. The branching ratios for $B^-\to\Lambda\bar p\gamma$ and $B^-\to\Xi^0\bar\Sigma^-\gamma$ are sizable, falling into the range of $(1\sim 6)\times 10^{-6}$ with the value preferred to be on the large side, and not far from the bottom baryon radiative decays $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda\gamma$ and $\Xi_b\to\Xi\gamma$ due to the large short-distance enhancement for $b\to s\gamma$ penguin transition and the large strong coupling of the anti-triplet bottom baryons with the B meson and the light baryon. These penguin-induced radiative baryonic B decay modes should be accessible by B factories.
