My Iphone photos take up a ridiculous amount of space?

My iphone says my photos take up about 500 mb (which isn't necessarily a lot...), but I only have about 18 photos. Why is this? I deleted over 100 pictures a little bit ago, and that didn't remove much of it. Why is this?

    Hi there,

    Due to the camera being a good quality, it means more pixels have to fit in, so it would be a larger file then normal.

    However videos can take even more, because they are HD, also a average photo took on a iphone 4s would be 3.3mb for every single picture
