The Copenhagen interpretation, while it does not invoke the need for human consciousness, nonetheless demands a classical measurement. The corollary is that the quantum state of a system is adequately and indeed completely captured by the wavefunction, and since the wavefunction lets you calculate only the probability of finding the system in some state, and does not correspond to, say, where the photon actually is, reality does not exist in any meaningful sense independent of measurement with a classical apparatus.
