I'd tweak your sentence as follows:
I found P-TTL to be vastly superior to TTL on the *istD.
With the *istDS, the plain old TTL works very well, enough you can hardly
find any difference.

Thanks for that reply mate.
I find it annoying that it doesn't expose correctly in p-ttl and with
the
camera in auto mode. Surely that is the basic requirement for them to
get
right? Oh well, I'll just keep dialling in flash
Metz will come out with some upgrade
sooner or later. All I want is just TTL.

I was considering buying a Pentax P-TTL flash because my good old Metz
32MZ-3, working so fine in TTL-mode with the *istD, let me down now with
the K10D. In A-mode this flash unit is working OK with the K10D

Too bad Pentax no longer includes the TTL sensor in the mirror box...
Considering how hit and miss it was on the D, it's not much of a loss IMO.

It worked quite a bit better on the Ds.

Well, you won't get just TTL with a K10D.
With a K10D you can use manual, auto or P-TTL. You will NEVER be able to
use TTL with a K10D, the camera does not support it.

I know. My AF 500 FTZ now sits idle most of the time. I use it now and
then in manual as a slave studio flash.

Have you tried making sure that you're using the catch
panel when bouncing off the ceiling? I've found that
it works perfectly this way. It sends just enough
diffused light directly toward the subject (and adds a
nice catch light in the eyes).
I use it this way and have no need for compensation
I use the bounce card but usually have my iso set to 100.
