It is actually very simple.....shoot in normal landscape mode then crop to 4x5 for optimal social media framing. I shoot for everything from social media influencers to commercial clients who need social media optimized content.
Within my NLE (Davinci Resolve), I have set up project presets for social media content and I then select "Fill" for the video fill mode, the last step is to reframe your content as needed to fit the new aspect ratio.
I actually much prefer to shoot in 16x9 then crop to 4x5 because that way my content is properly framed for both YouTube, TV commercial delivery, and social media.
Photography is even easier, once again, simply shoot in normal landscape mode then crop to 4x5 in post and reframe the content as needed; keep some space on the sides so that when you apply the crop you do not affect the desired composition. I do wish Autel provided framing guides that could be turned on in the app so that I could see what content will fit in the 4x5 crop, but its really minor. Most of my regular cameras do not have this either so by now I mentally know approximately what will fit into the 4x5 crop.
You can see an example of this with one of my recent projects, here is the event in normal landscape delivery:
