BitmapImage.PixelFormat throws DirectoryNotFoundException

    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        BitmapImage b = new BitmapImage(new Uri("Images/SampleImage.png", UriKind.Relative));
        //PixelFormat f = b.Format;         // throws DirectoryNotFoundException
        image.Source = b;
        PixelFormat f = b.Format;           // OK
    }

PixelFormat property throws exception, if called before the line image.Source = b;. But it succeeds, if called after this line. Why this happens? And want can I do, if I don't want to set this bitmap as image.Source, only want to work with this object in the program?

Visual Studio 2012,Windows 8, C# WPF project. Images/SampleImage.png is resource file, it is shown in the Image control.

This works

BitmapImage b = new BitmapImage(new Uri("pack://application:,,,/YourApplicationName;component/Images/SampleImage.png"));
PixelFormat f = b.Format;
