Log Instrument Time

Hi all!

When you fly IFR you get the whole time to be IFR time.
But actual instrument time is only logged when you fly only with reference to the instruments.

But how do you do when you fly sometimes into clouds then free of clouds and then back into clouds for a while. You can't sit and time all the time you are in clouds. How do you normally do? Do you estimate with your best judgment the time used solely instruments?

And how about flying with autopilot, is this accounted as instrument time as well if you ar in clouds with autopilot?

Thx!
