Get image url from MacroPartialView Umbraco 8

Hi I used to be able to get image url from macro with:

var imgMain = Model.MacroParameters["image"];
    int imgWidth = Convert.ToInt32(Model.MacroParameters["imageWidth"]);
    var mediaItemOne = Umbraco.TypedMedia(imgMain);
    <img src='@mediaItemOne.Url.GetCropUrl(width:imageWidth)' alt=''/ >

What is the new way in Umbraco 8 as I get the following error now and I cannot find any documentation on how to do it:

UmbracoHelper' does not contain a definition for 'TypedMedia' and no accessible extension method 'TypedMedia' accepting a first argument of type 'UmbracoHelper' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Try this 

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage

@{
    var site = Model.Root();
    var bannerImage = Model.Value<IPublishedContent>("bannerImage");

}

<img scr="@bannerImage.Url" />

Instead of Umbraco.TypedMedia, just use Umbraco.Media the APIs have been simplified as dynamics are no longer supported and the former method is no longer necessary.

The same goes for Content - TypedContent has gone away, and now Umbraco.Content returns a strongly typed IPublishedContent item.

OK, if anyone comes across this post, this is how I finally got it to work in Umbraco 8

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
@using Umbraco.Web;
@using Umbraco.Web.Composing
@{
    var img         = Model.MacroParameters["image"].ToString();
    int imageWidth  = Convert.ToInt32(Model.MacroParameters["imageWidth"]);
    var udi         = Udi.Parse(img);
    var imgUrl      = Current.UmbracoHelper.ContentQuery.Media(udi).Url;

    <img src='@imgUrl.GetCropUrl(width:imageWidth)' alt='' />
}
