How to delete photos ipad?

Hoe to delete. Photos in iPad?

It first died with the "sync failed to start" error, so I followed advice and shut down iPad and restarted iTunes. Sync then commences. churns for a bit, then appears to complete.
But the photos were still there, all 17,000 of them. So tried to sync to a folder with just 5 photos. Only 5 photos then showed up on iPad, but still Gb of space show up as used by photos in iTunes. Funnily enough, the space used (around 6Gb) is the amount iTunes said was used when it first synced all my photos, before it suddenly decided it was actually 30Gb or so - transfer took all night (11 hours) to run.
So in desperation used Copy Trans to delete the 5 photos. iPad now says I have no photos, and the 6Gb no longer appears in iTunes - BUT an extra 6Gb of "other" has been stolen from my iPad.
Any of us who want to "come in from the cold" should be encouraged by Apple. As it is, I'm going to remove iTunes before it makes me throw away the iPad as well. I'm a programmer and I know flaky coding when I see it - most advice on the forums re sync problems seems to be "try the same thing again, it may work this time".
Love the quality of the iPad, cannot believe the pile of **** that seems to be the state of iTunes, at least on Win7.
