I set the camera to Tv (shutter priority) and set to 1/640th to avoid shake on the 400mm lens (560mm with 1.4x TC) since I was hand-holding.
With everything else auto, the settings turned out to be this:
560mm: ISO 800, 1/640th, f/9 (widest is f/8 with TC)
400mm: ISO 320, 1/640th, f/5.6 (widest aperture of lens)
I plan to do more testing just as soon as I can (work, travel, vacation, Guinness, oy!)
Fot the eclipse I'm probably going to automate everything using this amazing software:

Settings for eclipse will vary a great deal based on the position of the moon. The dynamic range between full sun and full eclipse is HUGE!
Here's a good online exposure calculator:

For Baily's Beads you're looking at 1/6400th at ISO 100 f/8 (no filter), but for corona shots you're looking at 1/1.6s at the same settings. That's a lot of dynamic range. My main goal is to get pics of the corona, but again I'm automating all of it so we'll see what happens. My goal is to see a total eclipse and not tinker with gear. Well, I'll be tinkering with gear for hours in the hopes of not tinkering with gear during the eclipse.
