The only difference between DV and DVCam is tape speed. DVCam runs at twice the speed of DV. Data rate and compression is the same.
DVCam with the higher tape speed has a higher signal to noise ratio. This helps prevent dropouts. Good tape is so good these days that dropouts don't happen often.
I would run DV mode using good tapes and not worry about running DVCam.
