The flash compensation will affect the actual intensity of the flash and normally doesn't allow you to make very big adjustments (i.e. probably only +1 stop or -2 stops). The camera compensation will use the lens's aperture and/or ISO to control exposure.
Depending on your lens and its maximum aperture, you may need to use both to get the proper exposure or depth of field. The flash compensation also works well if you want to intentionally blow the highlights, i.e. in product photos
