Use a UIGestureRecogniser.

// IF your image view is called myImage
UIImageView *myImage = ...;

// Add a tap gesture recogniser
UITapGestureRecogniser *g = [[UITapGestureRecogniser alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(imagePressed:)];
[myImage addGestureRecogniser:g];
[g release];

When your image is tapped, this method will get called

- (void)imagePressed:(UIGestureRecogniser *)recogniser {
    NSLog(@"%@", recogniser);
}

Why don't you want to use a UIButton - it inherits from UIControl and has a lot of code that you probably don't even know exists? And it can just contain an image so it would look exactly the same?

Well, the pro about using UIButtons is that it got all touch events built right in. You can use UIImageViews, but you'll need to subclass them, while in most situations, a UIButton using a background-image would just fit.
