Hi there,
.3 seconds is actually pretty good in terms of shutter lag time on digital cameras nowadays. DSLRs have the lag time down to fractions of a second- some are really, ridiculously fast, but they do still have a lag. Point and shoot digitals are typically slower, half a second to a second lag time (and longer still when flash is on, etc.)
Basically, there is a delay with digitals due to the fact that the camera has more to do than a film SLR does during the time when you push the shutter button. The file has to be saved and written in order to create the digital image. Shooting extremely fast sports etc. with a digital may require you to do a little adjusting to how you shoot... you might have to learn to rethink your idea of timing in order to accommodate that delay. Also, pushing the shutter button halfway and allowing the shot to frame itself, then pushing the rest of the way when you're actually ready to take the photo, is a good way to speed up a camera with a lengthy lag time.
Technology is always advancing and camera manufacturers are making DSLRs faster and faster, but there is likely always going to be some sort of delay with a digital, however small it is. It's part of the game when shooting digital.
