I think BMP (which is the current default for POV-Ray for Windows) has 
also become a poor choice for technical reasons, as POV-Ray's 
implementation can only write uncompressed BMPs, making it a major waste 
of space without any gain. (It would of course be possible to implement 
compressed BMP output, but then again, why bother when there are better 
alternatives around nowadays.)
