Good idea of Mike's to reset the camera, but this will mean it defaults to the lower quality 12 bit audio mode. Best to then change that back to 16 bit 48 kHz in the menu. And again he's right - the DVCAM, DV (LP and SP) all give the same picture and sound quality.
If you shoot in the camera's widescreen mode the quality won't look quite as good on a 16:9 TV, but for You Tube it will be fine. Use the ND filters to keep the aperture around f/4 for the best quality results, and keep the shutter speed at the default setting.
For YouTube you might want to bump the sharpness and contrast slightly on the timeline when you're compressing to WMV.
