To get most accurate answers, it is probably best to test this yourself with a sample of your data specific to your problem. Error rates for different character/word combinations can vary largely, depending on the input.
However, there are also a number of articles that can be found with Google Scholar that deal with OCR error correction, such as A statistical approach to automatic OCR error correction in context. Although that particular article is not capital letter specific, they discuss a few common cases of misclassification.
