For this to work I assume one would have to use either the multi-point

Yes, P-TTL is significant upgrade to plain TTL. It usually tries to expose
picture so as the flash would be as weak as possible t

I am surprised it took Pentax so many years to offer matrix metering in TTL
flash mode. I still remember my sold F801s had spot, centre-weight and
matrix modes for TTL flash. The first thing I noticed when I bought the Z-1p
was that the manual said nothing about this.

I've found it to be much better when shooting macros of things like
damselflies that don't fill much of the area in the frame. With plain TTL

Yes

In images with a wide contrast range, such as a light coloured subject
on a dark background or vis-a-versa

P-TTL uses matrix metering, so in theory, it should give better results
when center weighted metering could be fooled. And in case of *ist, it
can
Can someone who owns the AF360FGZ confirm that P-TTL has given you
better exposures than ordinary TTL?
In what conditions?
