From: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.imaging.encoderparameter.aspx

private void VaryQualityLevel()
{
// Get a bitmap.
Bitmap bmp1 = new Bitmap(@"c:\TestPhoto.jpg");
ImageCodecInfo jpgEncoder = GetEncoder(ImageFormat.Jpeg);

// Create an Encoder object based on the GUID
// for the Quality parameter category.
System.Drawing.Imaging.Encoder myEncoder =
    System.Drawing.Imaging.Encoder.Quality;

// Create an EncoderParameters object.
// An EncoderParameters object has an array of EncoderParameter
// objects. In this case, there is only one
// EncoderParameter object in the array.
EncoderParameters myEncoderParameters = new EncoderParameters(1);

EncoderParameter myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder, 
    50L);
myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;
bmp1.Save(@"c:\TestPhotoQualityFifty.jpg", jpgEncoder, 
    myEncoderParameters);

myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder, 100L);
myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;
bmp1.Save(@"c:\TestPhotoQualityHundred.jpg", jpgEncoder, 
    myEncoderParameters);

// Save the bitmap as a JPG file with zero quality level compression.
myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder, 0L);
myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;
bmp1.Save(@"c:\TestPhotoQualityZero.jpg", jpgEncoder, 
    myEncoderParameters);

private ImageCodecInfo GetEncoder(ImageFormat format)
{

    ImageCodecInfo[] codecs = ImageCodecInfo.GetImageDecoders();

    foreach (ImageCodecInfo codec in codecs)
    {
        if (codec.FormatID == format.Guid)
        {
            return codec;
        }
    }
    return null;
