• Visual C# Assign buffer image to Bitmap Data

After I have the image buffer array byte* buffer, currently I lock bit of BitmapData data and copy each by from buffer to (byte*) data.Scan0. But I find this maybe slow and more importantly, it will double memory used for one image. For some reason, I could not delete buffer so this method cost me a lot of memory on Pocket PC.
