This code mostly works, but the resulting data seems to loose a color channel (is what I am thinking) as the resulting image data when displayed is tinted blue!

If anyone is still looking for a solution to this problem, I solved it by switching the BOOLs in the pixelBuffer's options:
NSDictionary *options = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
[NSNumber numberWithBool:NO], kCVPixelBufferCGImageCompatibilityKey,
[NSNumber numberWithBool:NO], kCVPixelBufferCGBitmapContextCompatibilityKey,
nil];
From NO to YES:
NSDictionary *options = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], kCVPixelBufferCGImageCompatibilityKey,
[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], kCVPixelBufferCGBitmapContextCompatibilityKey,
nil];
