Or get closer to the window than the cameras' range of focus. It will have to search for a
focus outside the window.

Use the infinity focus symbol usually symbolized by a mountain image icon.

bright light sources on your side of the glass.

Windex is a solution - of detergent and water. If the window is clean the
focus is less likely to cause problems.
Another solution is to use manual focus.

Unless you have a rare digicam that focuses with IR light, like film cameras, all you need
t do is get the camera close to the glass. When the camera can't focus on something
lcose, it will look out further for a focal distance.
This works on a plane, where you can't open the window.
