I would say it depends on what you plan to use it for. If I were to use it as a photo bag I would prefer the canvas version for reasons previously given. On the other hand, when I think about replacing my canvas F-802 I usually think of buying a ballistic nylon one. That's because I use it for work - the ballistic nylon looks more business-like, and I don't think it would get so worn, faded and mellow as the canvas.
For business purposes the canvas bag makes you look like a down-at-heel bum; for photographic purposes it makes you look like a grizzled veteran war photographer. -- Bob "Some people would sooner die than think.
