How to Credit Two DoPs?

Hi,
I'm new to filmmaking, and I'm finishing up the editing on my first webseries. I shot some footage for a couple of episodes with a different Director of Photography when my usual DoP couldn't make it. Can I credit both of them as DoP for the same episode? Should I specify in the credits which scenes they were responsible for? Also, do I credit them again for operating the camera? This is the first project I'm directing/producing/editing that I intend to show in public and I don't know anything about credits. I don't want to offend anyone I worked with through my ignorance! Thanks.
 
If you're trying to split the credit in a single episode, then typically you'd list one as DP, one as Cam Op, or something along those lines, but they're your credits, you can do what you want.

For different episodes, list whoever worked on it.
