Like KYHayman said, the lens drives closeup (macro) photography more than anything else for what you want to do.

I'd say look at a camera with interchangeable lens (most commonly called SLR's). Nikon & Canon are the most popular and easiest to find lens/parts accessories, but they aren't interchangeable, so most folks choose a line and stick with it.

You might want to read up on some camera websites to get a feel for their terminology, depending on how serious you want to get. Ken Rockwell is pretty opinionated, but has a ton of information and a lot of food for thought on his website:

Here are some pics with a Nikon D80 and a 18x200 lens. Its pretty amazing, since it can get as close as 10-12 inches (spider pic, snake was about 2 feet) or zoom out with the same lens for telephoto pics (Chinook helicopter at a NASCAR flyover at bottom).
