I could be wrong, and probably am, but I don't think you can balance  
interior darkness and window light without flash. With apologies to  
AG, I don't think film would be much, if any, improvement over  
digital. There's just too much difference between room interior  
shadows and bright window light. If you can't take the gear inside to  
do serious architectural shooting, the best results are likely to be  
had on cloudy days when the blowout won't seem as bad, or by simply  
not trying to balance bright window light, and letting it go. Some  
problems,  I fear, do not have solutions that don't involve a lot of  
gear and time. <g>
