How to delete photos from my iphone camera roll?

Okay so I sort my photos from the camera roll into folders in my photo library… If I delete a photo from one of the folders the photo stays in the camera roll but if I delete it from the camera roll it gets deleted from the folder. I was wondering if there's a way to delete some photos from one of the folders and it'll also be deleted from the camera roll?

Nope. The camera roll in this case is like the master album & the pics in the folders are aliases. So if you delete from the camera roll you delete from the album, but not vice versa.

Hi, I'm running out of storage on my phone so I thought the best thing to do would be to delete some photos, and obviously my photo stream folder uses up tons of space, but when I delete photos from the photo stream do they delete from camera roll too? Or vice versa? Obviously I'm using Apple (iPhone 5C) please answer quickly and thanks x
