Mar 5, 2016 7:35 AM in response to Marrgeeby Ralph9430,1. If the photos to be removed are in the Camera Roll you can choose Select, then tap on the photos to be removed and finally tap on the trashcan. This moves them to the Recently deleted album where they will reside for 30 days allowing you that time to recover the photos. To remove them permanently repeat the procedure in the Recently Deleted album.
2. If the photos are in albums synced from your computer using iTunes. The process is different. To remove entire albums you deselect the albums in iTunes before syncing. To remove individual photos move them out of the albums that are on your computer. Then connect your iPad and run iTunes. When you the iPad with iTunes photos not in the albums on your computer will be removed from the identical albums on our iPad. In other words syncing will keep the albums on your iPad the same as the albums on your computer.

For your case, you can click on the box titled Delete synced photos, and it will take you right to the place in the document with instructions.

Mar 5, 2016 10:27 PM in response to Marrgeeby Marrgee,Thank you so much! I shall try the suggestions with caution as the Apple system is very cryptic and when I have tried to do some editing in the past some very important data was lost. (Contacts that were synced with iCloud) The sync expression doesn't exactly say what it will do!
There are photos in albums that will "select" but the dustbin remains faded! Grrrrr
The Windows file manager was so much more direct and controllable...
Kind regards
