Later this was replaced by a Standard 8 or Standard 10 dating from about 1954. The holidays covered many of the standard new Zealand tourist destinations in the north and south islands and Stewart Island.

A group of colour prints date from 1962, 1964, and 1966. There are some scenic views, but most show groups of people. One shows Iris with a hugh red gladiolus bloom. Three photographs at the end of the album show Iris, Harry, and Florence in a group of people looking over the damaged ship `Wanganella' in the floating dock in Wellington, probably in 1947.
