Many cameras have macro facilities but they can be crippled with having to get ridiculously close to the subject to fill the frame because the macro mode requires the camera to be set at full wide angle. The Fuji 7000 is better than most in that respect because it will allow single macro mode at medium focal lengths, sufficient to get quite good butterfly close-ups from about 4" away. Difficult but feasible.
I replaced my S602, which is much the same as the S7000 except for fewer pixel count, by a Canon S3. The Canon suffered from the mentioned criticism and I ended up having to buy a close up lens, the Canon 500D, and adapter. But what this enables me to do now is get very detailed shots from about 18" away because it is used at the telephoto end, and with a 12x optical zoom this is quite a telephoto. You can use the camera's flash at this distance without the lens barrel getting in the way.
The telephoto end will focus to about a meter which will give useful images of larger insects without any attachments. Getting this black tailed skimmer dragonfly that was perched over a lake without getting my feet wet for instance! I shot this from a meter away, and although it's a partial crop, there's still plenty of detail for an 8"x10" print.
