How to set image to UIImage

How can I set image to UIImage object. For example:

UIImage *img = [[UIImage alloc] init];
[img setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@\"anyImageName\"]]

Like vikingosgundo said, but keep in mind that if you use [UIImage imageNamed:image] then the image is cached and eats away memory. So unless you plan on using the same image in many places, you should load the image, with imageWithContentsOfFile: and imageWithData:

This will save you significant memory and speeds up your app.
