Is the olympus pen e pm2 good in low light?

The PEN E-PM2 has a Micro Four Thirds sensor, the smallest of the common formats, so it won't match a full-frame camera in dim rooms. Sensor sizes puts Micro Four Thirds roughly two stops behind full frame at the same framing and f-number. The body does have in-body stabilisation, which helps you hold steady at slow shutter speeds.

For low light, the lens matters more than the body. I'd pick one of these fast primes:

• Olympus M.Zuiko 25mm f/1.2 PRO
• Panasonic Leica DG 25mm f/1.4 II
• Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/1.8

For more on why fast primes help, see Primes or zooms.
