CoreData, image storage - NSImage or CGImage?

Subject: CoreData, image storage - NSImage or CGImage?

My app needs to store some image data in a Core Data binary field (I've de-normalized the image to a separate entity).

Right now it's all working storing NSImages... is this the right way to be doing it? Should I somehow be using CGImage or something else?

I do want to create a thumbnail of the images for performance, so I was looking at CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex. Of course that doesn't use NSImage; the resulting thumbnail is a CGImage. I'd want to stash the thumbnail in Core Data so do I need to convert to an NSImage at that point? Or should I switch everything to store CGImages in CoreData?

Thanks,
Graham Perks.
