Is the olympus pen e pm2 good for wildlife?

Yes, with the right lens. The PEN E-PM2 is a small, simple body with few controls and a 16.1MP Micro Four Thirds sensor, but its 2.0 crop factor helps with distance. A 300mm lens frames like 600mm on full frame. Wildlife is hard, and the lens matters more than the body, so I'd put your budget there. Read Wildlife and sport first.

For reach, I'd look at these:

• OM System M.Zuiko 150-600mm f/5-6.3 IS: the longest reach here, like 300-1200mm on full frame.
• Olympus M.Zuiko 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25x IS PRO: a fast, serious choice if you can afford it.
• Olympus M.Zuiko 75-300mm f/4.8-6.7 II: a cheaper way to start, like 150-600mm.

Good telephotos hold their value well, so buying used is a sensible way in.
