Nothing has changed in the way Camera Uploads functions.
Personally, I don't see it changing. It's not meant as a sync process. It's a backup of your photos to your Dropbox account so you can delete them from your phone. It wouldn't serve as much of a backup if deleting them on your phone also deleted them in Dropbox (or vice versa).

Maybe nothing has changed in the way the camara upload function works, but my point is that something might needs to change !.. Comparing to other cloud backup solutions (like Google one , iCloud etc.) they all have a feature with some kind of two-way sync option. As already mentioned, it is in my opinion total waste of time to have to clean up my photos two places. I really hope this feature also will be available in Dropdox in the future.
