We can convert our .g BRL-CAD model file into .pov file. No need to go
for other conversion which cause inaccurate results. Also it is
helpful for other CAD softwares. They can use BRL-CAD as conversion
software. :P

Both these can render CSG models well. In BRL-CAD we can set our view
site but in POV-ray we can set it fast compared to BRL-CAD. The only
need is to set coordinates of camera. :)
We can set light. Its intensity, focus area etc. We can even add two
or more light source in POV-ray.
