Wonder if there's a way to get the current float rect data for later calculations (for move checks)

            //load current camera view
            View view = new View(new FloatRect(0, 200, width, height));

Or should I create a class that manages this data?

Do you mean the bounds for your view? If so it is not possible, but it has been suggested here.
If you mean the view's actual position use the center of the view.

yeah, I guess I'll write my own class for the sole purpose of what I'm trying to accomplish as the camera won't rotate.  Thanks for the information.
