Saving image to Core Data?

I want to parse these small avatar images to core data, I have this function using AlamofireImage.

However, on the setting of the result to the core data property, I get this error.

Cannot assign value of type 'Data?' to type 'NSData?'

Here is my code:

self.managedObjectContext = self.coreDataManager.managedObjectContext
let contactAvatar = UIImagePNGRepresentation(image);
contact.avatar = contactAvatar
do {
    try self.managedObjectContext?.save()
} catch {
    fatalError("Failure to save context: \(error)")
}

My Core data entry is Binary Data. I thought I should be able to save to this format correctly?
