It depends purely on what you call digital. Sony made some Mavica cameras in the late 80's that recorded video onto floppy discs, etc, and Apple came out with a 640x480 in the 90s that sold around $1,000 and Fujix made a 1mp one in like 1997 or 1999. You'd have to consider what you call digital. Some used film bodies and recorded onto built in hard drives as well.

"The first true Digital Camera that recorded images as a computerized file was likely the Fuji DS-1P of 1988, which recorded to a 16 MB internal memory card that used a battery to keep the data in memory. This camera was never marketed in the United States, and has not been confirmed to have shipped even in Japan."
"The first commercially available Digital Camera was the 1990 Dycam Model 1; it also sold as the Logitech Fotoman. It used a CCD image sensor, stored pictures digitally, and connected directly to a computer for download."
