You set the duration globally in the Prefs before importing (though it's
easily changed later)

You can pick a duration of 1 frame for each image, and in the sequence prefs
you can select 24fps, 25fps, 30 f/s, or 29.97 f/sec, or whatever framerate
you desire. 

To use this animation sequence in another "master" sequence, you simply drag
the animation sequence's icon from the browser into the timeline of the
"master" sequence.
