Camera roll in relation to other albums, iOS7?
If I have photos separated by albums and delete them from the camera roll will it delete them from the albums as well? If so, can I delete them from the camera roll and still have them in the separate albums
if I hook my iPhone up to the computer and delete them that way?
The Camera Roll is a temporary holding place for images and video captured by the iPhone. Sync with your computer and get the images/video from Camera Roll to whatever album you want. After the sync, the items in the camera roll can be deleted.
This is not unlike the days of film cameras… The "Camera Roll" is the film in the camera. Send the unprocessed film for processing and making a print… And placing the print in a photo album. If you open the camera and expose the film to light before processing you essentially destroyed the film (and hence the photo basically making it trash).
If you delete the image in the camera roll before putting the image in an album, then the image is gone. If you transferred the photo to the album, then the photo is copied to the computer - and deleting the photo from the camera roll is OK - because the photo is in the album.
BUT… THIS IS EASY FOR YOU TO TEST. Take a picture using your iPhone. See it in the Camera roll. Do nothing with it and it stays in the camera roll. Delete it and it is deleted from the iPhone. Gone. Take another picture using your iPhone. See it in the Camera roll. Send it to an album. Delete it in the Camera roll. Tell us what happened.
- Will restoring from a backup restore my camera roll photos? I did a restore on my iPhone and I forgot to save the pictures of the camera roll and now they are basically gone. If I right click the iPhone on iTunes and click on restore from backup there's the option to pick the backup I want and there's the backup from before the restore. So if I restore from that backup will my photos be restored to my camera roll?
- Why does my iphone no longer save photos to my camera roll? Ever since I had updated my phone to ios 6, i noticed that it no longer saved photos to my camera roll. If I take a picture on Instagram, it will not automatically save it to my camera roll as it used to do, nor does it save any image I want to save from Facebook. It will, however, still save a photo that I take from the phone's camera. It somehow only won't save photos when it is taken through another app or from another source. What can I do to fix this?

- Which camera is better: An old General Imaging x500 Digital Camera or an iPhone 7 front camera? It looks like an iPhone only offers 7 MP while this camera boasts 16 MP but this camera is so old and looks worse at least on its own screen. I'm confused
