I fly a turbo-prop without autopilot. For me the whole flight minus taxy time is logged as Instrument time. I've asked about this and been told it's perfectly acceptable, especially in a non-autopilot a/c because you are hand flying on instruments, even in VMC.
When I'm PF = P1U/S, PNF = Co-Pilot.
The point is to be able to talk the talk and walk the walk when someone (CAA) asks you to, they're not really interested in how you colour by numbers. And no, I am not advocating cheating or anything else of that kind. It's the way it is.
