Focusing with a ST7E

Hi, I am using a st7e of our local observatory but I though the focusing process very difficult. The image takes a lot of seconds to be transfered from the ccd camera to the computer. And the focus knob of a c8 have a lot of turns!!! So the whole focusing process seems to be very annoying. Finally I always have to use an ocular to find an object and then the ccd must be focused all over again.
Thanks,
Andre
