You may have to look at Exiv2 information to find that: afaik, all metadata 
handling is done through Exiv2. And that kind of metadata is usually in the 
makernote section, which is "rarely" documented...

So if Exiv2 isn't capable of decoding the relevant part of the makernote, 
darktable will have no information to work with. As exiv2 is an external 
library, the set of supported cameras can change w/o warning. 

I haven't found a list of "supported cameras" on the Exiv2 site. Not 
surprising: when is a camera supported? Very few makernotes are fully 
understood. And the makernote  support can vary between models of the same 
brand (and perhaps even between firmware versions of a given model?).
But perhaps try this page: https://exiv2.org/metadata.html
