java - Convert Blob to JPG and update blob

Question

I'm trying to read in a blob, convert it to JPG and then write back to the blob (it is being passed in by reference, but when trying to compile in TOAD I get an error on ImageIO.write.

import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import oracle.sql.*;
import java.io.OutputStream;

public class ImageConverter {
    public static void convertImage(BLOB[] blob) {
       BufferedImage image = null;
       OutputStream outputStream = null;
        try {
            image = ImageIO.read(blob[0].getBinaryStream());

            outputStream = blob[0].setBinaryStream(0);

            ImageIO.write(image, "JPG", outputStream);

        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        catch (SQLException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        catch(IllegalArgumentException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        finally {
            try {
                if (outputStream !== null) {
                    outputStream.flush();
                    outputStream.close();
                }
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
}

How would I convert a BufferedImage into a RenderedImage so I can write the JPG version back into the Blob?

Update: The error message is

[Error]  (1: 0): IMAGE_CONVERTER:28: cannot find symbol
[Error]  (1: 0): symbol  : method    write(java.awt.image.BufferedImage,java.lang.String,java.lang.Object)
[Error]  (1: 0): location: class javax.imageio.ImageIO
[Error]  (1: 0):             ImageIO.write(image, "jpg", outputStream);
[Error]  (1: 0):                    ^
[Error]  (1: 0): 1 error

Turned out it was a simple mistake, ImageIO.write takes in a RenderedImage which meant I had to cast the BufferedImage to RenderedImage, and I had written !== instead of != in the finally block. See below for what compiles successfully

            outputStream = blob[0].setBinaryStream(0);

            RenderedImage renderedImage = (RenderedImage)bufferedImage;
