The most highly regarded one is B&H which should be open again by the time you get there. The owners are orthodox Jews, so are currently closed until 23 Oct
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/
The store is near Penn Station / Madison Square Garden
Another is Adorama
http://www.adorama.com/
Shopping at B&H was / ( is) an interesting experience; the sales assistants don't handle the cash, there are other staff who do that.
I've only bought mail order from Adorama
Just remember that the advertised price is not the price you will pay. A sales tax of 8.875% will be added, and unfortunately there is no exemption for tourists, and no way of reclaiming it.

B&H. It is absolutely mesmerisingly awesome. Weekends are a bit crazy though, so try and maybe go on the Monday if possible. That said, that will be the first day they've opened after a week of being closed so it'll probably be quite busy as well.

Hi
Never found any around Orlando that aren't expensive.
Some of the big Walmarts target etc have extensive photo sections. Best Buy has a lot of kit and I have seen them deal on price, but you need to check respective web sites for offers.

Yes there are camera stores in Orlando the best one is http://shop.cphfun.com/#store=photo&dynamic=index
Be cautious at other stores you can haggle the price but make sure everything is in it at that price ie camera and battery charger or you are likely to open the box and find there is no charger.
Enjoy your trip
