Things I Dont Get...

..about this lens!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SIGMA-70-300m...84|39:1|66:2|65:12&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1318

What should i look for when getting a Zoom lens?
Why is this a MACRO lens that has 300mm?
Is It good for the price or is there better?

Sorry for all the questions

Because at between 200 & 300mm, it can focus in closer than the standard 70-300mm lens. If you already have a lens in that range, go for a dedicated macro lens, if not, you can kill almost 2 birds with one stone/lens

Is it a good lens to get then a a second to my Kit?

Is it one of the better range? ARO? or something!
