Depends on the camera used but one technique on digital cameras is to point
the camera down into the darker areas of the station and depress the shoot
button to the first detent then reframe the picture in the viewer while
holding that position on the shoot button then fully depressing the shoot
button to take the shot. It makes the camera set the exposure and the focus
prior to bringing the light source of the big window into the picture. What
you should get is properly exposed station equipment but an overexposed
window area. It's all a compromise.
And again it depends on the camera and it capabilities. Most digitals work
as described above.
