Macro pictures with common point & shoot cameras

In my opinion Fuji are nowhere near as good as Nikon for the same price camera. I've tested a lot of Fuji cameras and the low end ones are pretty terrible. Low end Nikons are not great either. By the time you get to about 150 GBP (probably $150 because we tend to pay over the odds) they are OK, but you can get a better Nikon for that price. I recently got a Pentax MX-1, and for the price the image quality and features are impressive. You can pick up a Pentax Q10 even cheaper which is a fun little camera, pretty decent quality.
Here's one from the MX-1: For the camera nerds F2.8, ISO 100, 1/400 sec Focal length 12mm (56mm equivalent) 1/1.7 inch sensor
