It's normal mate, Page 57 of the owners manual. It mist's up but should clear.
If it doesn't clear then a trip to the dealers would probably be best.

All cars suffer from this, being xenons it doesn't disappear as quickly...

Took delivery the other day with LED lights and both had condensation inside too. As is already mentioned, the manual does say it happens so I'm just going to keep an eye on it...
 
At the moment with the humidity being so high, especially when fog is the clue, we will probably have this occuring quite often...
 
Yeah I assume in warmer weather it shouldn't be much of an issue. With LED lights generating little heat I'm not sure how well they will clear in this weather though.
