I got my 8x10/5x7 several months ago so have no data on that but with 4x5 perhaps 50% color (80%transp). On fast moving trips 95 % digital. I've got to slow down.

These days I shoot about 85% 8x10 (even mix between B&W and color) and 15% 4x5 (same). I shoot color chrome and Tmax-100 unless I need the speed or exposure latitude of Fuji 160S or HP5+, respectively. The 4x5 gets used only if I need a smaller camera (longer hikes, tight fits into enclosed spaces, airline carry-on requirements, etc.) or require more depth-of-field than the 8x10 can offer.
Its hard to use that teeny little 4x5 once you've gazed into an 8x10. I rarely use my 4x5 except for color. I sure wouldnt throw away an 11x14 if I stumbled across a cheap one either, though I have no desire to go bigger than that. Its hard enough paying for 8x10.
4x5: 75%
6x12: 25%
Color (trannies for commercial work, neg for personal): 90%
B/W: 10%
Country: Spain - all film ordered online
B&W: 75% 5x7"/ 13x18cm, 20% 9x12cm, 2% 4x5", 2% 18x24cm, 1% 30x40cm.
Colour: 60% 13x18cm, 40% 4x5".
Oh - and a little 6.5x9cm B&W too...
75% is 4x5
25% is 8x10
I have a 5x7 but haven't even bothered buying holders yet.
60% of my shooting is "alternative" processes (mainly wet plate right now) and I shoot some 4x5 B&W film to make "fake tintypes".
30% B&W
10% colour (E-6)
4x5" - chromes, 30%
9x12cm - b&w, 50%
8x10" and 18x24cm - b&w, 20%
my whish is to do all b&w in 8x10, but sometimes it just isn't handy...
Nowadays 90% 5"x7" chromes (oh - really "half-plate" 4 3/4" x 6 1/2" ) as long as my current supply of velvia last, 10% 4"x5", color-neg & trannies. A 8"x10" is to be ready again this month & be put in use - Two years since I had a camera for that format. When 5"x7" supply is out - I guess I will find myself doing about 75/25 on 4"x5"/8"x10", mostly chrome - some color-neg. a few B&W .
4x5 with 100% Black and White
4x5 = 70%, bw and colour, neg and reversal
8x10=20%, bw only
5x7 back on my 8x10=10%, bw only
I also shoot 6x7.
Who is going to compile all the stats?
