You're going to have to better describe what it is you're asking. The subject title is "Lens Filters", but you want "sharper and defined images". And your last sentence is cut off.

sentence is indeed complete in regards to asking what settings cant I put to my t7 for the best image quality and definition, I have also been seeing filters that are attached to the end of the lens.. trying to find out what would be the best .. my primary use for this camera is for military airshows .. the lens I am using is the 75-300

Not going to suggest any settings, aside from perhaps using shutter priority mode for the air shows.
I would suggest a circular polarizer filter to help the planes pop more.

Your last sentence was "settings that I can program my camera to... ". Program your camera to what, exactly?
Lens filters can be very useful. I personally use three types:
If looking at filters, do avoid very cheap ones. The last thing you want to do is add an inferior piece of glass on your lens that could degrade image quality. I personally use B+W filters. Can be very costly, but I've never had any issues in degraded quality.

ill set the camera to shutter priority, is there a specific speed I should set ? .. ill take a look at amazon or hit up the local Best Buy store and see what they got.

forgive me for not being as specific , this is all very new to me, wanting to learn as much as I can to get some good images ... as far as settings go, shutter speed, sharpness.. things like that..

Well, it depends. Panning would require slower speeds, like maybe 1/30, as you move with the plane. If you want to freeze planes, fast speeds, like 1/1000 or faster should do the job.

Filters do not make your images sharper. Filters alter a difficult shooting condition to something that is more favorable and easier for the camera to capture.
