is there a possible danger for the reflex using ml?
thank you
Using magic lantern for almost 4 years now and the worst things I have seen were all solved with a battery pull (removing the battery and putting it back in again. )
So I would say it's rather safe :D

I have used it since September 2012. Started with 5D and installed it on 7D and 6D. If something happens I just remove the battery.
OP is asking whether there is a possible danger, not how likely it is to get in trouble.

TLDR: by design, any DryOS task can write anywhere in memory, and Canon code saves their settings at shutdown by flashing the ROM. Therefore, a bug in either ML or Canon code can possibly render the camera inoperable, and there's very little we can do to prevent that. That's unlikely to happen in practice, but possible. I've already recovered a couple of cameras from this condition, see e.g. https://bitbucket.org/hudson/magic-lantern/pull-requests/825 .
