In the price range you're considering you could afford some higher quality bino's such as the Pentax 10x50 PCF. These are relatively light and not to hard to hold steady - you'll need a tripod or mount of some kind if you go much above 10x.

Others here have more experience with bino's and there may be better options than these but I'm not aware of anything better for the price. Welcome to IIS
