Elliott - hi
7x mag from a set of binoculars limits, somewhat, your field of choice when it comes to deep sky. A huge list is no good if you're only going to be able to see 10% of it.
One of our club members, Robert Bee, has written a 160-page book specifically to answer your questions called "Heavens Above!" - A Binocular Guide to the Southern Skies". A brilliant book, it has certainly been read by many in our astro society, on this forum and elsewhere. Great directions and descriptions of objects and asterisms that you can actually see with a pair of standard 7x50's from our latitude.
