whats the best and cheapest camera to take closeups of figures

Around $150 the Nikon coolpix S600 is a great choice: https://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=Nikon+Coolpix+S600

Fernando takes great closeups with it using simple settings:

I think any camera with macro option is ok to take close up pictures. The problem is not the camera itself but the user...
Better than nikon in price is the bridge cameras from Fuji all are very balanced and take good clear photos.

Do you have a digital camera? If you have a SLR one cheapest option is macro tubes that go between the lens and camera
