Hey Stewart. Any entry level DSLR would be fine for your shots, especially since most of your subjects are still or minor in movement. Even a high end point and shoot may be good enough. If you go the DSLR route, there are cheaper alternatives for macro lenses made from 3rd party companies. Maybe have a look through the camera 101 section for more info. Welcome to APF too.
