  Is there another name for that lens? It doesn't sound like the right one. Who is the manufacturer of the lens?

  I'm buying this of ebay from Phoenix 47st.photo and its also described as "Phoenix AF 100-300mm f:5.6-6.7 Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon EOS"

  It's called a lens for "Canon EOS," so it works with any camera in the "Canon EOS" line of cameras, including your Canon EOS Rebel 300D.

As far as quality goes... from what I hear, you get what you pay for. This is a very inexpensive lens, so if you are willing to settle for a little less quality, then you'll be happy. I personally think you're probably better off going with Sigma or Tamron, but it's up to you.

That's just my opinion based on what I've heard. (I have never used a Phoenix lens.) Hope it helps.
