Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | GetCameraPosition | Returns the current position of the camera. |
| GetViewProjection | Gets a precalculated View * Projection matrix. |
| GetWorldViewProjection | Returns WorldViewProjection matrix. Calculating this matrix is faster inside Camera because here we can access matrixes by reference. |

Events| Name | Description | |
