Fastest way to read image sequence

Hi,

I am looking for the most efficient way to use MagickCore to read a sequence of large images that will be the same size.

I would like the method to re-use the same memory (given that it is the same size) if possible, and have the minimum amount of copying involved.

I am having a hard time figuring out what the best method is. It doesn't look like ReadImage, since it returns a new image. FileToImage? ImportImagePixels? This library has so many ways to get image data in and out of files, what is the shortest path between file and memory?

Thanks!
