You should not comment lines simply because you get a crash if you
uncomment them! If you get a crash, then there are problems with your
code elsewhere. If you leave the setter method as it is right now,
each time it is called it will leak the object that image points to.
By the way, where are you initializing image?
And as Rosyna just pointed out, there are way too many different
things called image. Things will become more clear if you use
different names where appropriate.
Also, go through your code with the debugger and tell us exactly
where it crashes, when it does.
