Just the little auto lens set in the 'macro' setting for the A580...

A regular macro lens is really nice as it brings out much detail in your subject...

Another alternative is extension tubes for SLR lenses.
Ones by Kenko seem to be effective for the Canon crowd. Not sure what there is for the Nikons though.

I think I'm going to borrow my Dad's macro lens this week. I've never used one before, so we'll see what I get.
