A:

If these are photos that you took with the iPhone they will appear in Camera Roll (as long as you are not using iCloud Photo Library). When you create an Album and "copy" pictures to it you are not actually making copies, just pointers to the original photos which still reside in Camera Roll. If you delete a photo in an Album they will be deleted in Camera Roll. In short iOS does not allow you to move photos to an Album and have then disappear from Camera Roll. However the pointers in the Album do not take up hardly any storage if that is your concern.

    You can create albums in order to distinguish a group of photos but they wont get deleted from the camera role!

    Also, the photos in the albums do not eat up any additional memory space.
