If you use a font that has small caps in it and the program that's displaying the eBook supports font-variant: small-caps; then all is good as the small caps will look good and not simulated.

But most books don't use small caps too much so simulated is easy enough to ignore. As to the size, I use 0.8333em. I don't know if that's the correct size or not, but it looks good enough to me.
Wolfie, my one Twoo Wuv:

And let's recap: exactly how many devices--not software, browser-based readers--have you seen that support "font-variant," exactly? "font-variant" is supported, in ET (Enhanced Typesetting) in KDP, but that's for KFX only, then. Just sayin'.

You either split the baby and go for smallcaps where you can, and pray a lot, or you do a faux font-variant, by using all-caps smooshed. Them's the realities.
