That's not how I read it: it sounds like he wants to move INTO photography with a particular interest in extreme closeups. The question is, how extreme? Any of the "prosumer" slr-like cams like mine or the fuji finepix 7100, whatever, will go real close, like basically 1:1, but not EXTREMELY close, and diopter filters are available to take them even closer.
You can get into the older, 4-5 megapixel versions like mine for under 400 dollars now, maybe a lot less if you can find a used one. This isn't a very good picture, but it will give an idea of what's possible: I could have gone even closer, and that's without an extra diopter lens on the front:
