.net - Find image format using Bitmap object in C#

Question

I am loading the binary bytes of the image file hard drive and loading it into a Bitmap object. How do i find the image type[JPEG, PNG, BMP etc] from the Bitmap object?

Looks trivial. But, couldn't figure it out!

Is there an alternative approach?

Appreciate your response.

Sample code to achieve this.

using (MemoryStream imageMemStream = new MemoryStream(fileData))
{
    using (Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap(imageMemStream))
    {
        ImageFormat imageFormat = bitmap.RawFormat;
        if (bitmap.RawFormat.Equals(System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg))
            //It's a JPEG;
        else if (bitmap.RawFormat.Equals(System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png))
            //It's a PNG;
    }
}

If you want to know the format of an image, you can load the file with the Image class, and check its RawFormat property:

using(Image img = Image.FromFile(@"C:pathoimg.jpg"))
{
    if (img.RawFormat.Equals(System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg))
    {
      // ...
    }
}
