How to get BitmapSource from BitmapImage?

Question

How to get BitmapSource from BitmapImage? Or how to convert BitmapImage to BitmapFrame directly? It seems to me that if I have BitmapSource I could use BitmapFrame.Create and finally get BitmapFrame object from given BitmapImage

A BitmapImage inherits from BitmapSource so no conversion is needed

The BitmapImage inherits from BitmapSource as parapura said.

Example:

BitmapSource bitmapSource = new BitmapImage();
BitmapImage bitmapImage = bitmapSource as BitmapImage;
