I'm having the same issue, too. I first encountered it when I bought my 5S and restored an iCloud backup to the new phone. Nothing would save to my Camera Roll ... new photos, saved photos, screenshots, nothing. I ended up having to set up the phone as new and rebuild from there. Well, the same **** thing just happened to my iPad when I had the latest update (7.0.4) crap out on me. I restored from backup and my camera roll was gone and no pictures would save ... exactly like the phone did. I begrudgingly reset the iPad to new and the problem persisted. Rather than have a screwed up Camera Roll and not have any of my settings and data, I reset AGAIN and restored from a different backup. The issue with the Camera Roll remains. I'm hoping to find a fix or that maybe Apple will build a fix into the next incremental update. In the meantime, I'm an increasingly disgruntled iOS user. For a company that prides itself on "it just works" ... well, it ain't working.
