Thanks for your reply. F11? Because that's what I got in AV mode when I set shutter at 350, given the ISO of 400, which, if I was thinking, I would have moved back to 100. I did have other shots at focal lengths up to 400, but they were even less sharp. And, perhaps for someone who is experienced at birds in flight, making sure you're in focus is easy, but with those eagles moving pretty fast, auto-focus seemed the best bet for me.
if you are using a 400 mm lens you shutter speed should be at least 400. For birds in flight I would go for 1200 +
