How to transfer pics from my iphone to my mac that are NOT IN THE CAMERA ROLL?

I lost everything on my Macbook and had to restore it to factory settings. I have over 5, 000 pics on my phone that are not on my camera roll and want them back on my computer. How can I do this? Is there some kind of app or are the picture files hidden somewhere on my MacBook?

Every time I try to move a picture from my camera roll to a new album, it only copies it. And when I try to delete the pictures from my camera roll since they are in the other album, it only gives me the option to delete it everywhere. How do I only have it in the different album?

iPhone, iPad and iPod are really good camera helpers. With them, you can take multiple photos whenever you find something interesting. If you have various pictures on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Camera Roll, you may want to move them into albums. In this way, you can sort them according to different types. Next time, when you appreciate them, you can find your wanted pictures instantly. However, moving photos from Camera Roll is not as easy as you imaged.

Like the user above, you may just tap "Photos" on your iPhone/iPad/iPod, and then tap "Camera Roll". Scroll down to find your wanted photo. Long press it until "Copy" appears. Then tap "Copy". After that, click "Albums" in the top left corner to get back the albums screen. Open any other album and paste the copied photo. However, if you do it, you will get duplicate photos. Worse still, you can only copy one photo at a time. How time-consuming it is!

Actually, to move photos from Camera Roll to album, I highly recommend you to use an iTunes companion - Wondershare MobileGo for iOS or Wondershare MobileGo for iOS (Mac). As a specially designed program, it not only enables you to move photos from Camera Roll to album at once, but also delete photos in Camera Roll.
