Yes I would look at the Olympus TG-3, I was looking at that one myself. It's a rugged weather and under water camera.
"The TG-3 offers four macro modes: Microscope, Microscope Control (maximum 44.5x magnification from 1cm), Focus Bracketing and Focus Stacking (multiple images are taken from foreground to background, and the areas in focus are automatically merged into one perfect shot"
I second this ^^^ suggestion! Great Out of camera jpegs, exceptional fast little lens, rugged build, and leading-edge picture-taking software would make the TG-3 my choice for your needs.
