    We had the same problem after we got back from a trip with 1300 photos. Tapping each photo is not what we wanted to do. I found a discussion on how to do it very quickly.

     

      

    1. Launch the Mac application Image Capture, which is found in your Applications folder, or you can spotlight search. 
    2. You will see a listing of all the photos on your iPad. Using the shift key, you can select a range of photos, or press Command-A to select all images. 
    3. Press the delete button to permanently delete the images on your iPad. 

     

    It worked like a charm

    Go to photos on the ipad

    Create a new album and you will be asked which photos you want to transfer.

    Tick a selection and press 'done'

    Select the new folder and press 'edit'

    Hold down the cross which appears on the folder and a delete window will appear.

    Then delete.
