How to receive binary data using ASP.NET MVC?

Question

I'm using ASP.NET MVC controllers for providing RESTful web services. That works just fine for simple data types like string and int. Now I need to send some binary data (like images and video) to this web service. My question is - what data types do I have to use as Action parameters and what else should I be aware of? Thanks!

I think byte[] suits any binary data. Of course, you have to know how to process it, otherwise it's useless.
