Pancakes are usually simple ‘tessar’ type lenses I think. So one less correcting element?
What this means in practice is they’re pretty sharp in the centre but maybe you’re going to see some vignetting and less-sharp edges. And they can flare a lot if you shoot into the light.
All of which can be quite nice tbh.
