I note with both the MZ-S and the *ist-D that the AF330FTZ can sit slightly sideways in the accessory shoe, and this can cause problems with the connections. I now always make sure that it is in straight before locking it on.

Sounds like you're getting full manual due to a bad connection. The flash TTL contact probably isn't connecting properly to the hot shoe. I notice that I have to be careful fully insert the hot shoe cord of my Pentax AF400T. Sometimes I even wet it a bit with saliva, which seems to improve the connection. If the connection is bad, everything is overexposed.

Paul,

This is weird.  I have a Sunpak flash that works
beautifully in TTL mode on my Super Program, PZ-1, and
PZ-1p, and doesn't work worth poop on the
istD--everything is grossly (but variably)
overexposed.
