A lighting assembly including a semiconductor light source, a support with a recess within which the semiconductor light source is positioned, and a collimator having light entry and light exit openings joined together by at least one side wall. The collimator is moveable relative to the support. The collimator is attached to the support such that the light entry opening of the collimator and the recess are joined in a nested manner so that light emitted by the semiconductor light source within the recess enters the collimator through the light entry opening and exits essentially only through the light exit opening of the collimator for any position of the collimator over its range of motion. The lighting assembly further includes an actuator for moving the collimator over at least part of its range of motion. An automotive headlamp arrangement includes the lighting assembly, a reflector element and a secondary optic.

1. A lighting assembly comprising a semiconductor light source;a support with a recess, within which recess the semiconductor light source is positioned;a collimator comprising a light entry opening;a light exit opening; andat least one side wall, wherein the collimator is moveable, relative to the support, within a range of motion about an axis of rotation, wherein the collimator is attached to the support such that the light entry opening of the collimator and the recess are joined in a nested manner so that light emitted by the semiconductor light source within the recess enters the collimator through the light entry opening and exits essentially only through the light exit opening of the collimator for any position of the collimator over the range of motion, wherein the recess and the light entry opening of the collimator comprises an essentially rectangular cross-section, and a collimator apron shaped to extend outwards along at least one edge of the light entry opening; andan actuator for moving the collimator about the axis of rotation,wherein the axis of rotation of the collimator is parallel to an edge of the light entry opening;a collimator comprising: a light entry opening;an apron shaped to extend outwards along at least one edge of the light entry opening;a light exit opening; andat least one side wall, wherein the collimator is moveable, relative to the support, within a range of motion about an axis of rotation, wherein the collimator is attached to the support such that the light entry opening of the collimator and the recess are joined in a nested manner so that light emitted by the semiconductor light source within the recess enters the collimator through the light entry opening and exits essentially only through the light exit opening of the collimator for any position of the collimator over the range of motion; andan actuator for moving the collimator about the axis of rotation,wherein the axis of rotation of the collimator is parallel to an edge of the recess;wherein the actuator comprises a rod connected to the edge of the light entry opening opposite the apron, which rod is rotatable about the axis of rotation to tilt the collimator about the axis of rotation. 2. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the area of the light entry opening of the collimator is less than the area of the light exit opening of the collimator. 3. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the area of the light entry opening of the collimator is less than 120 mm2. 4. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the inside surface of the recess is highly reflective. 5. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the recess comprises an opening in the support. 6. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the recess comprises an enclosure located on the surface of the support and extending outward from the surface of the support. 7. An automotive headlamp arrangement comprising a lighting assembly according to claim 1, and comprising a support element and a secondary optic. 8. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the area of the light entry opening of the collimator is less than 12 mm2. 9. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the area of the light entry opening of the collimator is less than 6.75 mm2. 10. A lighting assembly according to claim 1, wherein the apron is disposed around the light entry opening, and a corresponding wall of the recess is arranged to accommodate the apron such that the nested connection of the collimator and the recess is maintained during a movement of the collimator over its range of motion. 11. A lighting assembly according to claim 10, wherein the shape of the collimator apron and the shape of the corresponding surface of the recess comprise a curved shape, and the radius of curvature lies in a range between 0.4 and 4 mm. 12. A lighting assembly according to claim 10, wherein the shape of the collimator apron and the shape of the corresponding surface of the recess comprise a curved shape, and the radius of curvature lies in a range between 0.5 and 2 mm. 13. A lighting assembly according to claim 10, wherein the shape of the collimator apron and the shape of the corresponding surface of the recess comprise a curved shape, and the radius of curvature lies in a range between 0.7 and 1.5 mm. 14. A lighting assembly comprising: a semiconductor light source;a support with a recess, within which recess the semiconductor light source is positioned;wherein the actuator comprises a rod connected to the edge of the light entry opening opposite the apron, which rod is rotatable about the axis of rotation to tilt the collimator about the axis of rotation.
