Say I have declared an Image as:

Image img = Image.FromFile(@"C:\file.jpg");

Now, how can I retrieve the original format (jpg) from img?

img.GetType().Name always returns "Bitmap".

I don't think the Image class maintains that information at all. Your best
bet is to check the file extension.

I looked at Image.Rawformat, but didn't get any wiser. Anyone able to
explain this a bit further?
