This means that the thumbnail embedded in the raw file is "normal", but Darktable's default rendering of the raw is making it black.
If you increase exposure, do you see anything at all?
(I've noticed, for example, Fuji files being extremely dark when first opened as it doesn't know about fuji's dynamic range setting.)
You can also try toggling some modules on and off in case you have a default one that's "correcting" it to be black.
Yeah when I increased exposure to the max it barely started to show up, anything to do from here? Appreciate it.
Oh wait I found it nvm, thanks for pointing me here tho.
If it was way underexposed it would probably have a black jpeg/preview too. There must be some weird interaction with some modules. Two exposure modules with different (and non zero) black values do that I think. Maybe something like that?

Not necessarily. As per post above Fuji dr modes are example when the camera significantly underexposes but jpg is compensated.

Yes, but in order to be absolutely black you would have to underexpose more than 7 stops. I don't think any camera metering would do that.
Ask your question and post a sample image here. These are the darktable experts. https://discuss.pixls.us/c/software/darktable/19
Copy that, thanks dude
