For those shots, I used a Konica A2000 8mp, which I bought new several years ago.

I am not good with it, because I have yet to read the manual. Even if I did read it, new information is hard for me to comprehend and to retain.
Some times, I have just experimented with the settings, not knowing what I am doing. Again, because I have not yet read the manual. Other times, I just leave it on AUTO.
I used to be pretty good with my TOPCON Super DM's, back in the day. Please don't ask me about how I sold them to buy a used Olympia camera, because my anorexic-bulimic girl friend could not hold my Topcon made like a tank camera to her face. I sold over $3,000 (used value) worth of Topcon gear, including all the lens, the scarce 85 mm portrait lens, and TWO Super DM's to by one Olympus OM-1, at St. Louis Photo in St. Louis, where she was hospitalized. Her doctor thought that sharing my love of photography would be good for her recovery. Stupid me, thought, I will sell these tanks, including the Topcon RE Super that I carried in Vietnam, and get a lighter camera. So, for over $3,000 used value in Topcon Gear, St. Louis Photo traded this dummy a $120 used Olympia OM, and an additional lens. They told me that they would have my worthless gear on their shelves for years, as there was no demad for it. Next week, I regretted giving up the RE Super as it had Vietnam memories attached to it, so I went back to St. Louis Photo to buy it back. WHAT TOPCON, you were never hear, was the response that I got from them. All my gear was gone.
So, even though I asked you not ask, there is my sad story.....
