Appropriate lens for Canon EOS400D

Hi guys, I've had my Canon 400D for a while now, and have overall been very pleased with the results

However, when using the 400D for astronomy purposes, the trouble has always come with focusing. My question is what is the most suitable lens to use when photographing the sky with a 400D? I bought the camera with the twin lens kit (standard 18-55mm lens + 75-300mm lens) but these two so far seem unsatisfactory for photographing the sky. Are there any lenses that are specifically made for astrophotography?

Regards,
Andrew
