Which they are zero.

The detector may have a rise and fall time but that doesn't mean what they are detecting has a rise and fall time.

The properties of an electron consist of much more than it's charge; a free electron can have any momentum, for example; or electrons might be in correlated states with each other, where the correlation parameters are both uncountable and continuous.

You can split photons, and you can place them in correlated states that are parameterized by real (or complex numbers); they can also have a continuous range of frequencies.

So no, everying is not digital. However, lots of digital technology confines electrons and/or photons in ways that make the natural states for them discrete, i.e. digital; although sometimes their states might be part discrete, part continuous (electrons in a 2D quantum well, for example).
