I hate changing the needle, and know I don't change it as often as I should because I have such a hard time getting it in correctly.

My Juki industrial also has round needles, but I can get my nose a lot closer and have better lighting, plus that one the hole goes left right instead of front back and that seems to be easier for me to line up.
Try doing a search for "longarm needle alignment magnet" I got one of those and I use to get my needle in the right position....
