That all looks reasonable to me. I had some cheap 10x50 Lidl specials that were bearable, but I now have some Opticron 8x42 binoculars that are in a different league - not crazy expensive though.

Binoculars are a great place to start, learning to read a sky chart like this:

will make things go a lot more smoothly as well.
