We consider the azimuthal asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic leptoproduction arising due to both perturbative and nonperturbative effects at HERMES energies and show that the $k_T^2/Q^2$ order corrections to $< \cos\phi >$ and $< \cos2\phi >$ are significant. We also reconsider the results of perturbative effects for $< \cos\phi >$ at large momentum transfers \cite{A1} using the more recent sets of scale-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions, which bring up to $18{%}$ difference in $< \cos\phi >$. In the same approach we calculate the $< \cos2\phi >$ as well.
