Does the AF500FTZ flash retain TTL metering with the older bodies
(such as the Program Plus)?

There's nothing in the AF-500FTZ manual about the Program Plus, but there is a statement on page 10 that says:

"When mounted on non-KAF2 or KAF-mount cameras, the AF500FTZ works only in the manual mode, and dedicated/TTL operation is not possible"

The manual provides a "COMBINATION OF CAMERA'S EXPOSURE MODES AND AF500FTZ The valuse in parentheses ( ) apply to SFX/SF1 and SF7/SF10 only" function table that lists Z-1/PZ-1, Z-10/PZ-10, and SF-series cameras.

OTOH, the Program Plus manual indicates the AF200T, AF280T and AF400T flash will all work in TTL auto ...

So maybe it will, maybe it won't.

I found out the AF-500FTZ does not work in TTL auto flash with the K-10D, although the K-10D is AFAIK a KAF2 mount camera.
