What camera for photographing Jewellery?

Until now i have been using my standard supermarket 5.0mp camera for photographing images of Diamond rings/earrings etc, but feel the need to invest in something a bit more superior. However i am a total novice in Photography.
The Fuji FinePix S7000 Digital Camera has been recommended to me because of its Macro features. Any other advice would be very much appreciated!!

The S7000 is no longer a current model, so you might struggle to find one. Though it is a good little camera. I have a Fuji 9500 which has been replaced by the 9600. Does what I want very well without being overly complex. Big advantage is that if you need total control it has fully manual zoom and focus modes.

Does seem to get generally good reviews if you do a google on it.

Not the cheapest camera available though. About £220 from Amazon is one of the best prices I've seen for it.

Anything with a decent macro will probably be fine if you only plan to use it in auto mode. Most of the newish compacts go down to 1cm.
