The X-T200 (only manual I've downloaded) has Grid 24 that you could use to frame 4:3 by composing halfway into the outer rectangles on either side.

It also has 16:9 (HD/UHD) but you didn't ask for that.

So just on the outside horizontal edges (left and right?) Could you be more precise with what you mean by halfway into the outer rectangles.

If this is true I would like to try it as my X-T2 has the 24 grid.

It's more natural to use Grid 24 for composing 1:1, but if you imagine vertical lines bisecting the leftmost grids, and bisecting the rightmost grids, you have 4:3.

Just as a follow up I tried this today.

All those lines gave me a headache ha ha so went back to the usual 9 grid and just decided I'll crop to 4:3 in post.

Cheers
